I did an IP ban on the nameprotect spider the other day (12.175.0.35). It was viewing a thread when I made the change. I then went back to the who's online and it disappeared shortly afterwards. I figured the IP ban had worked. The next day I saw it was back viewing members list with these icons . I have my board set "guests cannot view members list" so I would expect to see the icon when a guest is trying to view the members list. I would also expect the nameprotect spider to not even be able to view the board at all with an IP ban.
Did my IP ban not work? Is this spider immune to IP bans?
