This is for the ISP I work for (clue: not netspeed). The key thing I'm
trying for is easy of maintaince. Hence, why I'd like it in the stardard
package. I could edit the code, but I don't usually get enough time in
one sitting to actually do this [1]. Worse, when there is an updated
version I'd have to repatch it. Something that is likely to be
forgotten. I'd also like to see it be maintainable if I even leave here.
The three strikes for IP address with white/black listing isn't a bad
idea. We've tried captchas and some customers end up ringing support for
help. It probably doesn't help that captcha insists on being under the
login button.
Jeff.
[1] Hand editing doesn't scale when you have to become familar with each
packages code base each written in different languages/styles and you
run quite a few.
