I'm going to upload new forum login script on Wednesday, November 23. The only change in the script is that it creates twice longer session ids. It is possible that you will need to re-login after new script is installed. It is also possible the the script will break everything, although it's doubtful Smile I will post when the change is done.

The new code is in place. In addition to the change I described in earlier post I also modified forum configuration to use shorter cookie names. If you encounter any problems logging in, accessing forum pages or if you see any unusual errors please post here.

I've made more changes to the forum login script. It shouldn't affect anybody, but if you see any strange things, like redirecting to login page, or if you have problems logging in then please post in this thread or email to webmaster at cpu-world dot com.

That IP address is not blocked. In fact, I don't see any requests from 80.103.0.0/16 range blocked in the past two days. I guess his IP is different. The easiest way to find out external IP address is to type "What is my IP" in Google or Bing.

This one is not blocked. There were no blocked requests from 88.103.*.* range yesterday and today. The last IP address (109.x.x.x), that he used to post in the forum, is not blocked either.
