In cpanel look for

 

IP Deny Manager

 

This feature will allow you to block a range of IP addresses to prevent them from accessing your site. You can also enter a fully qualified domain name, and the IP Deny Manager will attempt to resolve it to an IP address for you.

Been thinking about blocking ip´s since I did it myself a while ago.

Without knowing if this really works or not, but wouldnt visiting a site via a service like anonymizer.com make the blocking useless?

It depends what country the "anonymizer" server is located in. But yes, that would allow the users to bypass your ip-deny.

 

There's not much you can do about that, unless you block the anonymizer server somehow.

I am trying to certain people from leaving information on my guestbook advertising certain products. If it keeps going I will have to take it down. I tried blocking their ips but there were another 10 postings today.

 

How do I stop them.

I have blocked anonymizer from sites before. Same procedure...block their IP. but this situation is mostly spam bots. They don't use anonymizer.

Ok, so today I decided to install WordPress, and as I was looking for plugins, I came across the following page. It is, perhaps, my favorite all-time error page:

 

http://wp-plugins.net/wp-plugin-mgr.html

 

(acutally, the link I clicked on tool me to a .zip file, but I didn't want to scare anybody, and the error message is the same, regardless)

 

I'm laughing out loud!! I can't help myself! :surrender:
