Excellent! Hope this will protect the forum.
Indeed, it's good to have this great forum available again.
However, I only hope there will be no false positives, as ~2 years ago I was unable to access (except than with proxy) it
because (afaik) my whole ip subnet was banned by whatever reason (probably another botnet worm).
The sad part is that abusive host's owner couldn't even know his machine is a zombie.
