Ban unregistered user by IP?
I am getting bombarded by an IP address that has been associated with a hacker. I can't seem to figure out if there is a way to ban an IP address. Is there?
|
yes there is...
in vbulletin option, select user banning option, then Banned IP Addresses. then put the ip address you want to banned... |
Thanks!!
BTW, this is the IP address. Everyone should keep a look out in the logs! 204.236.226.210 |

If you have access to a firewall in your site or server control panel. Block the IP with the firewall.
|
Great. Blocked it through that. Let's see if that works now.
|
Just an FYI, that IP is the spider for the wayback machine at www.archive.org

You do understand of course the IP you referenced isn't the same one he posted about. |

User agent when it's spamming is likely IE6 or earlier, or Opera. For the OP: The "IsBot" mod stops all spammers which are automated, botnet zombie computers, regardless of user agent. It emails you with the details such as username used, IP and email address used. |
