Plus the thrill of Smokey and MattO teaching these guys a lesson is worth more than any drama thread.

Wanna help, list your htaccess file if you can. I'd be interested in what you did. Not sure that would be smart?? It would reveal your protection in part. You also have a firewall.

Or ICQ, I'd go through it line by line for my own education. I can use google and read the white papers too, but would appreciate seeing code in use...
