So, again, just for clarity (I can be slow ..

)

After a guest user gets blocked because he exceeded the views specified, all he has to do to start the viewing cycle all over again, is to shut down his browser on the machine he's using, then restart it.

Doing that causes the cookie that was set by your mod to deleted, so in essence, this mod only works as along as the user says in a current browser session. Correct?

If so, it's too bad a cookie can't be set that causes the machine not to be able to view more at all, unless it was specifically cleared by the machine user manually?

My apologies if I've misunderstood how the cookie operates...

Thanks again for your work....

Badger
