Ban submissions by IP address
Hi,

I'm not sure if anyone already does this, but would it be possible to ban submissions by referring IP address? (Eliot I've seen the thread for banning by domain name, but I think this is slightly different?)

Someone appears to have duplicated my submission form including the URL of the add.cgi script and is using it to submit hundreds of adult sites, or at least their members are. (I've used the contact details from the RIPE database for their IP range, but haven't had any response from them so I'd like to ban them.)

Could add.cgi check the referring IP address and forward to an error page, despite the fact that the script call is being made to a URL within my domain?

All the best
Shaun
