Block proxy users (cheater)

[winoomgmg]

Hello Friends,

I want to block users who use proxy services to access my web pages.

My objective one user account one connection due to my limited trafic band width.

Some users use proxy server and open multiple account.

How can I acheive it ?

Thanks in advanced.

Rgds,
WO

Just a small solution


<?php
if(@fsockopen($_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'], 80, $errorstring, $errno, 1))
{
die('<strong>Hey! you are using a proxy!</strong>');
}
?>

I would like to block open/public/private proxies from accessing my site. Our target audience is mostly teenagers and lately some of them have found it fun to try and reak havoc on us through proxies. I figure I could d/l one of many proxy lists and add them one at a time to the ban list in cPanel but that would be tedious.

To block the proxies I assume you need to have some information about them such as the list of the proxies which are forbidden

You can always setup a firewall box such as mikrotik and have complete control over everything.

Your hosting service provider will have a solution for you. consult them, they will have automated systems to resolve this issue.
