[Forum] multiple visitors from the same ip

[dimitrios]

right now, for the second time today, i have many visistors entering from the same ip.

it's an unusually high number anyway. I've checked the ip with whois and it's located in Germany..

lots of these "visitors" get error messages and therefor they seem to be bots of some king..

anybody have any clue as to what is happening?

thanks

post the full ip

Hard to know wihtout the full ip, but unless they're causing some serious load on the server, best to just ignore them.

Why are you hiding the full IPs?

Why are you hiding the full IPs?

IP Addresses are serious business.

a known spammer if you have spam o matic installed he will not be able to register so dont worry if you want you can ban him or use this program to block his host http://www.vbulletin.org/forum/showthread.php?t=268208

[dimitrios]

in my forum there's a catch and bots cannot register that easily, even without captcha (i have it disabled).

furthermore, i suppose i can just ban his ip, right?

If it makes you feel better then you can ban his IP address.
