Cheat/Proxies detection

[cajkan]

Hello VL community,

I was reading little about proxies detection, and how to protect topsites. It is really hard to detect all the proxies. Here is what ive found on the web so maybe you guys gonna get inspired or some sort.

You use a cookie on their computer to tell the server they voted that would reduce some of it, however cookies can be deleted.
I have had some success using both cookie and IP proxie detection but the best method is to use log in and session
Good luck

Lets see what others think!

Indeed, cookie is near useless to stop cheating, IP detection would be the way to go, but soooo many possible proxy IP's out there.

Still the best way until this point in my opinion, unless you want to add 100000's of proxies ips ( which might even change ) to a blacklist.
Logged in voting would be secure, but kind of stupid
