Dozens of Backups Made

Usually, I get just one Backup mailed daily.
However, sometimes I am getting dozens of backups, one triggered every minute or so.
This was so annoying that I had to turn off backups when on vacation, and getting mail on a PDA.
The Chinese are usually the ones triggering these multiple backups.
I have no idea what they are doing in there.
Will check my server logs tomorrow and see if I can puzzle it out.

I have blocked commenting on the galleries.
There's really not any areas they can further abuse.
So, if they are just wasting their time there, is there a way that I can "shoot the messenger"?
Is there a way to throttle back all these multiple backups?

My site doesn't get a lot of legitimate traffic.
Seems most of my hits are from some sort of bots.
I have tried limiting the worst of it with a heavy .htaccess file.

I don't even visit the site daily.
So, I don't want to set the trigger for admin or members or I might not be getting enough backups.
How can I get just one backup a day without all these dozens of triggers?

Thanks
