I had only allowed 5 ip addresses thinking that would have been enough along with the email random password mod.
Because users with a Dial-Up will connect each time with a new ip address. So banning by ip would be useless against them.
So using this alone to stop spammers is not going to work. Using this mod along with other preventive mods will stop them after a while. I had pointed that out in my first post in this topic and in the readme.txt file.
You don't need to comment out anything. Since you already installed a mod on your forums, you will have to copy and paste the code from the files in the zip to the files in your forum. Because if you just extract the files from the zip and overwrite the files in your forum, it will overwrite the Ban IP mod code.

There were errors please post a question in the MOD Implementation Forum at

Please give me a hand on fixing this.
Thanks

Thomas, try using the Access 2000 connection string instead in your config.asp file.
Stuf, I'm helping you in your other post.

OK, I tried switching to the Access 2000, but got the following error:
ADODB.Connection error '800a0e7a'
ADO could not find the specified provider.
/Forum/mod_dbsetup.asp, line 13
The server uses Access 97 and run NT4.0

Sounds like you have some outdated MDAC files. Go here: http://www.microsoft.com/data and look for Microsoft Jet 4.0 SP3 Now Available for Download. Download that and install it on your server. You would need to restart you server after that. Then try installing the mod again.

I am having the same problem where it doesn't ban anyone. Including myself. I tried this trick to see if it resolved this issue, but it did not. Any ideas?

I had the same problem and here is how I got it to work...just go into the admin options and turn off both settings and hit apply. Then turn them back on again and hit apply. For some reason they default to showing on the first time you go in, even though they are off/null. I could write a fix for this, but I don't feel like it
hmmm, that shouldn't be. I'll look into it.

You shoudn't have over wrote your files. If you have a copy of all your files before you over wrote them, you should put those back up. And then copy the ban ip mod code into the files. Don't over write them.
And I said that in the readme.txt file:
"If you have made any changes to your other files you will need to copy and paste the code into your files."
Seems to me users are not reading the readme.txt file. sheesh Can you post a link to a txt version of your topic.asp file?

Davio,
So what is the final set of files and instructions for this MOD? I need to place it on my Forums (with Access 2000) as soon as possible.
Thanks,
Gisele
