Hey Paul... I will install and run both then, by your recommendation, thank you.
Is it overkill to have both? By the way, a high profile spammer tried to register and I used your track guests mod to grab his IP and the user name he used, I then dropped his IP in my htaccess file.
Sorry if I gave you too much information but it can be frustrating when hackers attack 24/7/365 with automated software, and you just want and need help from people who have already been through this, like you. What mods do you use, and have you been able to defend them off with no damage since you have developed a working plan?
Thank you again for all of your mods.

I have a question about the firewall mod you developed. I read the entire discussion on it, and I'm still wondering if I should install it on my board. Does it need to be completely redone or fixed?
What other types of firewall mods are available for VB?
