and i fear if your mod will move users or prevent from registrations to non-spammers too? as if someone surf on cybercafe and multiple users register there but they arent same but then ur mod will prevent them from registering?

i mean to ask wht does ur mod use to detect and prevent multiple registration?
wll it prevent non-spammers too anyway?
You should uninstall AE detector completely (not just disable) for it to function properly. (You can see by the comments that this has been verified again and again)

You can CHOOSE whether or not multiple accounts are moved to a prevention usergroup. Also, if you do choose to have multiple accounts moved to a prevention usergroup, you can always choose to move them to a new usergroup, after you verify they aren't a spammer/multiple account. (This does NOT stop them from registering.)

It's pretty much impossible to tell the difference between Spammer and non-Spammer by simply checking IP addresses or cookies. If you're worried about real, unique users being moved to a prevention usergroup, you can always activate "silent mode" which will ONLY notify you. (It will not take any actions in silent mode) This will help you get an idea of how many reports you can be expecting and give you an idea of how it works.
