You have to configure it properly first. The default settings (like recipients of PMs and forum to post in) are blank and must be set to correct values for a multiple account to be reported. Also, the Multiple Account Reporter must be set to a valid User ID number.

Might become a bother if they are very active. Probably the only thing keeping me from fully installing.
I know. I have the same thing on my forum - I'm sure many administrators do. The thing is, this modification utilizes ignore features. You can ignore specific users and ignore their child accounts (if they have any). I suggest taking advantage of that. In your case, if User1, User2, and User3 all use the same computer, then just put User1's ID number on the Ignored Users and enable 'Ignore Child Accounts.' Also, this modification will only report new detections - as long as the account-counting cookie is intact. Anyway, as I just said, I suggest that you use the ignore features in combination with 'Ignore Child Accounts.'
