Plugin: Real IP detector (anti-proxy)

Clouseau

I’ve just written this plugin for my own blog that detects the real public IP of a client connecting via a proxy server.

Unlike other plug-ins that use the HTTP headers, Clouseau detects the real IP and can’t be fooled by false HTTP headers.

When a comment is posted it ensures the real IP is logged, and can also be used in other pages to display the IP and Proxy Server details to the user.

Its available for download from http://wp-plugins.net/ in their “Spam Fighting” section.
