I didn't know that the Facebook modification broke the modification. I'll have to download it to see if there is some kind of workaround. I might not get the chance to within the next couple of days. I'm working long hours and I'm struggling to get started with school, so I have little time on my hands.

What I mean is, if a user has the REMEMBER ME box checked to remember them, the person gets auto logged into the site when they return. As such, it will not set the new cookie until they LOG OUT by clicking log out or clearing their cookies and then logging back in. (it does not just update upon return.)

I am asking for I just changed over from the other AE Detector and it also used IDStack. I did not want an issue so I changed my to something like MySettings. (Could I just use the old info in IDStack?)

Thanks

Well, just as in the older AE Detector, the cookie is set during login. Nothing happens during logout (in the modification, that is). The cookie is not cleared since it uses a separate cookie, but if I remember correctly, any cookie name that is prefixed with your vBulletin cookie prefix will also be cleared during logout. For instance, if you have your vBulletin cookie prefix set to vb_ and your account-counting cookie name is vb_IDstack, it would be cleared during each logout. However, I also think that I put in a warning system, so if you accidentally have the cookie prefix in your cookie name, it will let you know either in the settings panel or in the reports. I'm not completely sure where because it's been quite awhile since I worked on that specific code.

When a catch is made via IP, can you please include the host info name for the IP? It would help to determine if it may by a proxy for a company.

Also in the verbose info...it says by IP, but also could include the IP address again with the domain info.

Currently looks like... Caught by: IP Address

Could look like... Caught by: IP Address XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX (Domain.com)

Looking forward to future advancements.

BTW...I ask for AVSForum.com is a very busy site with a lot of companies that come in. We see a lot of spammers and what have you as you may guess.

Ah, a good suggestion. I'll add that into future versions. But as I've said in earlier words, I have very little free time, and my next version is planned to be a huge release with database functionality. I have a lot to add on, so it may not make it into the very next release, but I'm not even sure when that will be at this point in time. But nonetheless, tis a good suggestion and I'll be trying to implement it in the future.

Selected Method: No Prevention

[ Cookie Information ]

The account-counting cookie (IDstack) was not found.

[ Capture Information ]

Caught by: IP Address

[ Verbose Messages ]

[ Dev Information ]

Verbose Message Bitfields: 0

That's quite odd. Not the verbose information alone, but coupled with the situation. I'm going to have to investigate this. If you would like me to, please contact me through PM with login details to your forums.
