Thank you for your help and have a nice weekend! Laura | | | savaria (X) Hungary Local time: 03:19 English to Hungarian + ... Why would you want to block anybody from seeing your profile,hm,Laura? | Aug 5, 2006 |
Why do you want to block anybody from seeing your profile?Then,it is like that ,that if somebody has a dynamic IP adress,you cannot block him or her at all from seeing anything in any kind of homepage.It is only questioon of a dynamic IP adress.

[Módosítva: 2006-08-05 07:25] Well, this person is creating me problems, she visits my profile at least 20 times a day, she is using my mobile numbers (both Belgian and Italian) all the times (ringing and hanging up), I am receiving anonymous emails. After weeks of research I got her name... maybe she will not stop ringing me but I want to stop her visiting my website, that's all. When I am fed up with it, I will go to the Belgian police to report all her details... By the way, how do I recognize a dynamic IP address? Obviously I have her IP number, I know she is using it from her workplace, that's all I know. Thanks for your help Laura | |

Change your mobile phone number | Aug 5, 2006 |
I knew there was a reason I tend not to include all my details on my profile page! Good idea anyway to include a mobile phone number somewhere - at least it can easily be changed! I do not think that visiting your profile is the thing that is bothering you - it is probably the e-mails you are receiving and the phone calls. Incredibly annoying! Personally, I would change my mobile phone numbers even if it meant I had to tell all my clients and friends to change the numb...

Personally, I would change my mobile phone numbers even if it meant I had to tell all my clients and friends to change the number. Not all clients are good at recording that as I noticed when I changed my e-mail address - but at least you will get some rest. Good luck! ▲ Collapse | | | mrr2ro United States Local time: 20:19 English to Spanish + ... If it is a dyanmic Ip | Aug 10, 2006 |

[Edited at 2006-08-05 08:04] If it is a dynamic IP (It changes every time the machine restarts or the modem is reset, or some DHCP servers have a new IP address assigned based in time – every few hours or every few minutes). You can create a mask, and block certain classes or block of IP. for example if the annoying IP address is 192.168.1.123, then the last 3 numbers change anywhere from 192.168.1.0 to arrange of 192.168.1.255 (The maximum in an 8 bit block address = 0 to 255), then you can simply type. 192.168.1. Don’t forget the period at the end. Or you can create a mask as such 192.168.1.1/16 But hen you will be blocking a WHOLE range of IP addresses. Keep ion mind, this ONLY works if ProZ supports such TCP/IP features. Good Luck Mr. Arturo Pinzon SpanishTech | | | Laura Iovanna Local time: 03:19 English to Italian + ... TOPIC STARTER

According to what I have seen in these days it works... maybe it is not a dynamic address and I managed to block it! But thank you for the information! Laura | | |
