But how can u find out scientifically what their entire block is?
For example we have established that if their IP is 234.234.123
u can ban say 234.234 but that will ban innocents and banning like 234.234.1 will do the same/may not ban the intended malicious user cos IPs aren't static
excuse my ignorance but what's all this lookup business?
I maintain that banning ISPs would definately help. cos many malicious user are on tiny local ISPs which u could ban quite easily w/o affecting other users. I have had the malicious user in question thrown off AOL for his conduct so such an ISP banning system WOULD work
Do any other boards offer this?
basically banning doesn't really work if your malicious attacker is dedicated enuf.
