This can be set up independently from the software? ie just put the right cookie code in the templates. Has anyone done it? If so could you give me some pointers on how to set this up?
Banning by ip isn't enough, some users are on randomly assigned ip blocks. Some people say there's no point in a cookie based ban, but this is crap as there is no 100% way of banning users. All you can do is use all the methods at your disposal. Many web surfers are ignorant and this is what you rely on with *any* method.
Is it as simple as placing the cookie code on the login page? If a banned cookie is recognised on the users machine it can display an "error has occured" message or something similar?
