Ok i never have questions about S but now just a few...
Yesterday i also noticed (thanks to 404) that some site had 15 links to my site of pages in swf that doesnt excist anymore...(more then a year old)
note: the requested files arent part of my website,so they get my 404.
But i clearly set that website in ban by refer but thats not happening...,meaning...good old senti isnt sending me mails it banned someone...

Maybe a silly question: are you using htaccess - are the banned IPs there? If not, and the bad URLs don't go through Nuke, well...

not in htaccess Smile

i only added the website in the blokked referer,so anyone coming from that website......bang your banned....but not now..... Question

Hitwalker, i tried this with a not exiting download lid and was banned.Your Referer is not allowed to refer to this site.

I only added website A in the referer block of site B and clicked on the new download link on site A.

There was another thread about this and what to add in the .htaccess directly. Couldn´t find it anymore.

thing is...

if i put justtest.com in banned refers and set forward to my killer template shouldnt everybody coming from justtest.com end up with a freezed up computer?

Or if the bad link is realy at justtest.com/thread?blabla.php ..should that be put in ?

Thats whats buggin me a bit,i asked a friend to try it ...
In the blocked referer i only have justtest.com
so he went to this thread at ..justtest.com/thread?blabla.php and nothing happend...he got the 404

So should i put justtest.com/thread?blabla.php in as coming from referer ?

If thats so...whats the use of putting in any gamble or sex related site referers in there starting with only the domain adultblabla.com ?

We both know that strings in the referer blocker should be in the format domainname.tld or subdomaine.tld.

as the testperson clicked the link he didnt get the trash templates...but the 404

Do you know this also:

There are so many ways to ban or redirect through .htaccess and you´ll find several examples if you use the search function here.

well yes but thats not the way i want it cause im using sentinel instead of htaccess.
i have it set to forward to an url,in this case its the deadly templates...
and its not set to default page...
He tried it again and still the 404...
So it looks(i say ..it looks) like the forward isnt working...

And it gets weirder.
It looks like 2 persons are banned now but i cant verify if they got the templates or not.
and why did they get banned and my test rabbit didnt ?
