Topic: Banning Host Names

Is it possible to ban a certain host name such as proxy.aol.com? Or are there any mods to do this?

Re: Banning Host Names

well, IPs can resolve to hostnames that don't resolve to the original IP tongue

Snowthrower, surely it would make the site very slow to resolve the IP of every visitor?
