Cross this off... we're well over 400 banned IP addresses now, with a good dozen added yesterday alone. Four so far today and I've only been online since 0600 EST! I hate to think of how many are bombarding the application with attempts to get through, only to discover the IP or IP bloc they're using is already banned.

Please can I kill them now??!!
