Proxy Alert
 

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/external/2013/08/7.jpg

FORMALLY KNOWN AS TOR ALERT! PROXY ALERT TAKES CONTROL OF YOUR FORUMS WITH THE NEXT LEVEL OF PROTECTION! 3.8 VERSION HERE.

I've searched high and low for a modification that can detect Tor or proxy users. Personally I've had one too many banned members just create another identity and troll about. Now let proxies and TOR... Give you problems NO MOR! Now when those pesky proxy and Tor users visit your site, you can block them and redirect them to a custom error message!

You can also alert your members that proxies and Tor is not a nice thing to use! You can customize the message and it also allows to be closed.

alot of people use Tor for hacking forums this addon is very good one if u want more protection

Perhaps eventually. In its present form, it doesn't protect you at all.

Can't wait to see this plugin come out of it's beta stages!

i had this in mind when i posted:

Yes. I was clarifying it for the other poster. I would like to see a total block for Tor users, personally.

NOW OUT OF BETA!

You've posted, and I've read! Tor Alert 0.5.0 has been released and out of beta since I now have the kinks worked out.

You can now block Tor users completely and redirect them to a custom message set in the AdminCP! You can enable/disable this option if you choose to just stick with an alert. Also shows up in the who's online as "Blocked by Tor Detector."

I hope you guys enjoy this modification, and look forward to more features and a premium version soon! Feel free to leave your suggestions and feedback in the topic.

Good job, a 3.8 version would be nice.

any plans on blocking i2p to ? i dont know if this is possible i m just asking :-)

I no longer use 3.8, but I'll see what I can fancy up. Won't be a supported modification though.

No plans at the moment, it simply isn't that popular for me to invest time in it. I've not had to ban anyone multiple times that use it. If it becomes more of a problem for me or if request is high enough, then yes the plans can always change.
