You choice I guess, but the changes have no connection with mysql. That's a general timeout error reported many times on vb.com.

Thanks Paul, maybe I'll put it back in awhile if I see these errors from time to time without the hack installed. Seeing them for the first time only after installing the hack, and having the error point to the file that I just modified, made me think there must be some relation, but who knows. (I don't). :-)

Thanks for this mod. It will really help my board with proxy users getting locked out by other users on the same proxy fat fingering their passwords.

Just what I have been looking for.

***INSTALLS***

could you please clear up some uncertainty of mine? proxy and real ip?

you mean by real ip the ip you see when you run cmd /ip? and with proxy the ip you get from you provider?

if thats the case... damn... thank you... where have you been... and all that good stuff. as i am still uncertain as to whether this is what i've been lookin for. but please make that clear to me.

Real ip is the ip you have on the internet, normally provided by your isp. Proxy ip is the ip of any http proxy server you may be routed via (if that proxy passes on the details of you real ip). Real ip is not necessarily the ip of your pc, as you may be on an internal network that uses NAT to access the internet. btw, I have never seen cmd /ip before.

i ment cmd /k ipconfig, so it isn't the actual pcs, ip. that would've been too cool.

It may or may not be, it depends on how that pc connects to the internet.

I love this hack!

Sorry to ask this question but does the px.gif only appear if the thread was posted with a proxy ip?
