Using this IP option, mind that many internet providers rotate IP addresses to it's customers. So they perform a forced IP address change, e.g. every 24 hours. In this case any other customer could have the same IP address of a member that used this IP address a day before.
Well it's unlikely this will happen, but it might... So keep the timeframe activated (Time Between registrations)!
