chkProxy 1.0
Checks registration IP against a list of known proxy/VPNs. If detected the user is blocked from registering.
Powered by GetIPIntel.net
This is not 100% foolproof but it will block a lot of VPNs, proxies, and other bad actors from registering without blocking them from viewing your forum. You are free to use this code and plugin as long as it follows the Expat "MIT" License requirements and restrictions.

This is my first plugin since returning from my lengthy break, I already had a similar plugin I use for other software so porting it over to MyBB was really simple and I noticed
this thread.
It's nothing fancy, but it works decently. Enjoy!

I am interested in this plugin.
Is there a message that a user gets when they try to log onto my website using proxy/VPNs?
Does it say something like... "A proxy or VPN connection has been detected. This website does not accept these types of connections. Please use your own internet service provider to connect to this website."

Here's the message they see:
Quote:You appear to be using a proxy/VPN. Please disconnect and try again. If you think this is a mistake please contact us.
I saw it working on your website and i was blocked(VPN)
Nice plugin.

Ok, good.
Would I be able to change the wording on this warning message? Or is it hard-coded into the plugin code?
I'll add a language file for the next update so it can be changed easier.
If the IP information can be cached, GetIPIntel wiil not be ban my vps.
plugin is very good
Good plugin, but I have a problem with setting the "confidence" value. I can't choose anything between 0.95 and a negative number. Is this a glitch?
This plugin no longer works. You can already register an account, regardless of your IP address or user agent.
Is there another alternative for MyBB? I heard iPatrol deals with that, but it might be too strict.
I believe this plugin is no longer working.
Will it be updated?
