As I said, check out the latest posts (or pages) as the first link I gave you works for vB4 as well regardless them being for vB 3.x, it's all about reading the replies ;). And yes, doesn't matter if they use a different IP or Email address. As long as their cookies are saved in their browser without them removing their browser (including cookie) history, then the plugin will detect it.

Thanks - Just looked at one of the accounts of the pest - 127 IP addresses all through BTCentral ....

See:

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=264335

So: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=183268 is confirmed to work on vB4.

But it's recommened to read through all the replies on the latest pages on both detect plugins to see if there's anything that might need to be altered/edited in regards of issues on vB4 or updated PHP version(s).

Lot of posts to read - but I'll give it a go - can't be any worse than we are at the moment.

Thanks

Geoff

Loaded and watching....

Let me know if it works :)

I'd be interested to know how well it works too.

Currently no nefarious or otherwise action has taken place - so as to whether it's working or not, I'm still unsure.

BUT our daily activity is relatively small with new registrations between 0 and 5 daily - so perhaps our mischievous gentlemen are staying away.

<span style="text-decoration: line-through">Sadly a member using the same email address and the same ID had two accounts (a long-standing member so may have gotten on before same email switch was set) did not trigger the mod.</span>

It worked, but I hadn't noticed !

This member with two accounts was banned, sadly he created a further three accounts which were not detected.
