Sorry about that, but "in the 1st place" I posted about the vB "user banning options", and the conversation went in a couple different ways.

Sorry to disturb you my friend, and thanks for the advice.

Don't take typing so literally...

The more querying you do on the DB the more mysql is going to hog server resources, apache/iis will handle that better. I would suggest a firewall really, but then again your on a winblowz server.

It was more taken as Face Value than literal

Thanks again for the advice, and I will definitely take that into consideration.

Right now what I have done is send the banned IP ranges to a specific OFFSITE page which has statistics.

I will know if all this is even worth it after about a weeks worth of gathered data.

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