Is there a way to block proxy server use? Once in a while I notice in the guest_info records that someone is using a proxy server to view videos for free. I can manually add records to the database to block the IP addresses.

But is there a way to put in a range of IP address - such as 55.55.55.* or 44.44.*.* ?
I am aware that this may block valid users, but that is not my question.

The database does not recognize the asterisk as a wild character (or at least does not compare it as one).

So could I add some code in the video_view.php file just before it redirects them to the signup page?

Any suggestions? Thanks.
