 * I’m trying to add IP Access for an ip, similar to 203.194.123.21, however after
   adding it to the list it then shows as 127.255.255.255?

 * I have manually changed the database fields start and end to bigint in order 
   to allow for complete range C addresses to be used, however you may want to update
   the plugin to do the same. Other than that it works very well, thank you for 
   your work.

 * Hi,
 * I have just released version 1.3 which fixes the BIGINT issue and also adds the
   option to enable and disable the IP range.
