This is what I use, I think I got it off the online documentation. I use it
to track users and it checks for proxys.
if ($HTTP_SERVER_VARS["HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR"] != "")
{$IP = $HTTP_SERVER_VARS["HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR"];
$proxy = $HTTP_SERVER_VARS["REMOTE_ADDR"];
$host = @gethostbyaddr($HTTP_SERVER_VARS["HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR"]);}
else
{$IP = $HTTP_SERVER_VARS["REMOTE_ADDR"];
$host = @gethostbyaddr($HTTP_SERVER_VARS["REMOTE_ADDR"]);}
