$_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'] is a bad thing to use these days.
Since AOL, and MSN Browsers change the IP address at the
most uncomfortable times, such as going from unsecure to
secure mode, you cannot rely on it staying the same anymore.
Using this Octal-Quad for hanging on to a user, such as in
shopping carts will ALWAYS FAIL with AOL browsers. FYI.
