Seems as though a few porn sites got a hold of my web address and have since linked me unfortunately. Unless herbs and gardening are considered pornographic, I have no idea what the thrill is... icon_rolleyes.gif

I went through the process of adding to my includes file and making a banned txt file as Nuke Cops directed,and banned the entire range from where these sites are being hosted from. I also wrote to their hosts letting them know what some of their customers were up to.

I know the banning works as I tried it with my own ISP and I couldn't get in.

Are they just showing up because they are linked? Or am I missing something?

Thanks

Not sure what you mean. Is there a post somewhere on NC I can take a look at to see what you did or what is happening?

There is three on this page. I used the one in the "middle" or that involved editing includes/my-header.php

Yea but your trying to ban I.P's that havnt even been to your site yet. Meaning you ban these but if new ones get the link then they show up. I don't know of a sollution for this except deactivating your refferers for now.
