:o Hiya all...

 

I have a competetor, who is basically copying idea's of my website. Now he uses a static ip - is there a way that I can prevent him from acessing my page??

 

There must be some sort of way to block certain IP's - any one have any idea's?? Thats so much in advance

that sucks...

 

do this. edit your .htaccess file:

 

and add this:

 

 

order allow,deny

deny from 127.0.0.1 //where that ip is his ip.

allow from all

Most likely your question has been answered, please do a search first.

What exactly is he copying?

 

The .htaccess probably won't work - if his web site has references to files on your site, the IP address of the reference would be the user, not the site. You could use rewrite rules based on the referrer, but those are unreliable.

 

If he has made local copies of your files, there's nothing you can do.
