Hi,

I need your help asap with this:

I am the Admin on pipesmokerunlimited.com but am neither the owner nor the license owner. The owner has implemented a software called "SiteLock" to prevent spamming... essentially, it's a firewall for the forum.

SiteLock makes ALL IP addresses of ALL members the SAME... this makes it impossible for us to ban a single IP address or do searches for IP addresses since they're all the same.

I've advised the owner to uninstall SiteLock but he does not feel like doing this since he sees daily spam attacks that have been prevented by SiteLock... I see his point.

Anyway, the owner contacted the SiteLock account manager who told him that I need to need to add an X-forwarded-for header to the site... this should make all unique IP address appear again in the ACP and Who's Online view.

Problem is that I have no clue how to install that X-forwarded for-header since I have never done this before as I have never had SiteLock implemented on another forum I was admin on...

Does it need server accesss to do this?

Could someone please tell me step by step how to install the X-forwarded-for header to the site?

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