It looks like a company called Blue Coat sells a product called ProxySG which is designed to help keep web applications secure by passing all requests through a proxy. It would seem, though, that URL requests along the lines of /verify-SNL_Splash?aHR0cDovL3d3dy50aGlzaXNob21lLmNvbS5hdS8= are internal requests made by the proxy appliance, and are allowed through the system unfiltered (and may even cause the appliance to make changes to the proxy settings).
My hypothesis then is that these requests are part of the daily detritus of botnet request-spamming, trying to find out which systems use ProxySG, and then reporting back to their owners for nefarious purposes. Or something.
