Web Proxy Redirector [BETA] · **Released**: 05-14-2007

Current Version is in BETA

What is it?
This hack was designed to prevent users from using a web based proxy such as http://www.dontfilter.us/ to circumvent a IP address ban. It uses javascript to determine if the current domain matches the forum's domain. If it does not match, then it redirects the user to the website of your choosing. If the proxy strips the javascript code, then the forum will not be visible to the user, and a error message will be shown.

Effectiveness
This has been tested and has blocked at least 90% of all web proxies. Best of all, this hack requires no template hacks. The hack is completely self-contained in the product file.
Phrases are used for the informational messages.

Instructions
Instructions are included in the zip file.

Demonstration
For a demonstration, you may attempt to visit my forum http://www.isosdcftp.com through a web proxy such as http://www.dontfilter.us/.

SWEET works like a charm.... Out of the 200+ free proxy sites I've tried I have only found 2 that will allow me thru. Not bad if you ask me. Thanks ISO look forward to see what you have up your sleeve next..........

It lets Xroxy.com go through to your site just tried it lol. But regardless going to install I like it and I worry about individuals registering under proxies.

Uninstalled because there are no real Options at AdminCP.

I have nearly 20 Domains my Board is hosted on - to much work to enter everyone directly at the Plugin-Code.

Waiting for a Update with Linkback at Productmanager at AdminCP to vb.org and a real useable Menu.

Awesome! I'm definitely installing this one. Cheers.

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
