[IP Banning] MacroHawks Anti-Abuse System

Hello VB Forums Community! This is my first open source vb6 release! It is a Anti-Abuse System or an IP Banner! It uses Winsock and Inet. It connects to a specified web server and reads the text file to find banned IP's. It starts with a form showing your IP. If it is green then it is not banned and if its red that means its banned. And if it is banned it disables the button that allows you to continue with program. The actual code is only 15 lines! The only problem with the program is that it can only read 1 IP from a text file because Inet will only read the first line of the text file and you need to put IP like this:

Code:

---

127.0.0.1
127.0.0.1
127.0.0.1

---

So if any one can fix this so that it can read all lines please...please... tell me how! Well any way here is the program. Hope you enjoy!

You can change your Form_Load code a little bit to get it done.

vb Code:

Private Sub Form_Load()
Dim Ban As String
 
Ban = Inet1.OpenURL("http://www.website.com/ban.txt")
 
Dim arr() As String
Dim i As Integer
Dim flag As Boolean
flag = False
 
arr = Split(Ban, vbNewLine)
lblIP.Caption = WinsockControl.LocalIP
 
For i = LBound(arr) To UBound(arr)
    If flag = True Then Exit For
        If WinsockControl.LocalIP = CStr(arr(i)) Then
            flag = True
        End If
Next
 
If flag = True Then
    cmdBegin.Enabled = False
    lblIP.ForeColor = vbRed
Else
    cmdBegin.Enabled = True
    lblIP.ForeColor = vbGreen
End If
End Sub

Hope it helps you!!
