Erm, no it isn't, if a real ip is detected, then it is shown. Try reading the description .....

This hack makes the forum always use the members real ip when a proxy is detected, meaning that all existing ip functions should continue to work, basically ignoring the proxy server (other than recording it's presence).

i.e.

* The real ip (or host) is displayed in the who's online page.

* The real and proxy server ip's are accesible for each post, the button is red for members using a proxy server.

* The real ip is searchable in the admin/mod cp (but not the proxy ip).

* The real ip can be banned by admins.

etc etc ......
