An Error Has Occurred!
Sorry Guest, you are banned from using this forum!
If didn't use MOD it work fine.

You need to be a little more descriptive of your issue. If I understand what you are attempting to say, then this mod does not ban anyone, nor does not touch the SMF ban system. If you are seeing the message- "An Error Has Occurred!
Sorry Guest, you are banned from using this forum!", that is generated from the SMF ban system, either by IP, email address, or username triggers.

One of my customers had registered with the forum with a particular IP Address 41.241.239.55 ...
but about 90% of the time he visits, the forum claims that he is coming through IP 196.25.255.195
and he is denied access with the attached warning or error page.
I have contacted the Honey Pot and Eric replied ...

So I've done a little digging on this. It looks like both of those IPs are from the same network:
descr: Telkom SA Limited
descr: Integrated Network Planning
descr: Private Bag X74
descr: Pretoria
descr: Gauteng
descr: 0001
country: ZA
196.25.255.195 has a hostname of: wblv-ip-pcache-5-vif0.telkom-ipnet.co.za
41.241.239.55 has a hostname of: dsl-241-239-55.telkomadsl.co.za
Best guess is that his ISP is attempting to do some acceleration on their end with their cache host and it's the cache hosts IP that is listed. I say it's my best guess because I have no view into what his ISP is doing with his traffic. If you look at your access logs are you seeing traffic from both IPs or just the cache IP?
What are you using to query httpBL? Does it have an internal white list mechanism? Alternatively he can probably contact his ISP and let them know they have an abuse problem with that cache.
Best Regards,
Eric

Can I whitelist this IP Address or can I whitelist this user no matter what IP he comes from?
Thanks!
