Check client IP-addresses?

And then? I am DoS'ed from several 1000 IPs and since legitim uploaders are mostly on dynamic IPs I can not block by IP. OK, last Saturday I have installed a COOKIE which worked for the weekend but today morning the DoS'er have solved this problem too. This mean, there are one or more crackers targeting my system directly. OK, even if I use heavyly PHP, my system was never hacked since it is up (Juni 2000) but now I am ongoing to be militant if I catch one of those pigs...

They're attacking you b/c they've read your previous posts to this list about blocking javascript, so they're just testing you. If I were you, I'd consider it to be a privilege that you're getting DoS'd. =P /\/\y t00 s1nce, ~Phil
