Active Users lists are never 100% acurate, it uses IP addresses to track users, if a user is using IP masking and is chnaging thier IP address, or disconecting and reconnecting and getting a new IP address from their dial up connection then they will be seen as to diffierent usres and so listed twice. There is no way to make active users 100% acurate as TCP/IP drops the connection as soon as the page is downloaded, so there is no-way to tell if the user is still using the forum or not. ------------- https://www.webwiz.net/web-wiz-forums/forum-hosting.htm" rel="nofollow - Web Wiz Forums Hosting https://www.webwiz.net/web-hosting/windows-web-hosting.htm" rel="nofollow - ASP.NET Web Hosting |
