It really depends on the type of attack. If they're just flodding as part of a DDOS attack then spoofing is viable, but for something like a SQL injection attack the IP can't be spoofed per se. In those cases the biggest problem, in my opinion, is that it is ridiculously easy to reroute (think TOR) and come from a different, unrelated IP in a matter of seconds. -Justin ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:350960 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm
