Cerb's Anti-Proxy Hack - 15 seconds install

This is my Anti-Proxy hack, works with any vBulletin version.

Just download the attachment.


What this hack does

This hack prevents anyone from accessing your site through a proxy.

This is pretty useful if you have a large/semi-large community like mine (www.bnfreak.com) with a lots of young / immature members.

If someone gets banned he will most likely try to come back through a proxy, this is what this hack prevents.



You can also customize it (like I did on my forums) to simply prevent new registrations from proxies rather than the whole site. To do this, just edit register.php instead of global.php



Don't forget to click Install

description please ???

Pretty self-explainable:

Prevents proxies from accessing your forums.

hum... i see, the only thing that will be brought here is that 30% of the internet will not be able to visit your board... good for you, but not really useful. anyway, anybody can release a hack..

To keep users, youve banned from your site via ip, off your site.

Indeed, can be very useful if one has a particular problem with trollers. Thanks

Look man, I have a forum I can call large enough and we're a young community, many are very immature for instance if they get banned, they'll proxy back in and spam the website.

That's what this hack prevents.
