Steve, I think you might be expecting a wide spread knowledge of TCP/IP where it doesn't exist.ricciardelli said:

NO! As a matter of fact none of my bullet manufacturer manuals list pressures. Not Nosler, Speer, Sierra or Hornady list pressures. I asked some of these guys why they do not list pressures. Sierra told me it is because they do not have pressure testing equipment, Speer took too long to find my way through their phone menu, Hornady said "I duno", "What would you do with it if you had it" and Nosler said that they do not list pressures because handloaders cannot be trusted with this information.

Galil5.56 yes that is a pretty damn stout load for a 38, but if Riccciardeli states it on his site, by golly, that's the way it is.

That is exactly why I differentiate between ISP and IP Address.
As I stated earlier, I generally block the IP Address of the system that has attempted to abuse my system. When there are MANY addresses from the same provider, I then block that entire provider.
The same for email addresses and email providers.

You can rest assured that if I found a baby in my bath water, or anywhere in my house, I would throw it out...
As for "donors", they are few and far between ... but the site is not there for income...

Just so everyone knows, here is how to obtain your ip address in Windows.
Click start.
Click run.
Type cmd.
Hit enter.
Type ipconfig.
Hit enter.
Click start.
Click run.
Type cmd.
Hit enter.
Type ipconfig.
Hit enter.
You sure? Isn't this going to list the Ip address on my side of the firewall. I'm not all that savvy about this stuff, but when I ran you little test I came up with an IP address that matched my internal network and modem. Not something I want to share on an open net. I think.
mr. ricciardelli,
Please do not take what I am about to say the wrong way. I think you have a great site, and have visited many times.
In this day and age it is a known fact that if you host a domain on the internet you will need some intrusion detection prevention hardware appliance or appliances. Not you basic dlink router from a big box store (not saying you use this device or a similar device).
Maybe a firewall such as SonicWall that has gateway packet filtering for different types of intrusions with subscriptions along with a enterprise content filtering appliance. Paired with a wonderful device such as a Reflex or something in the same realm of appliances that allow you to set many limits/rules to certain ranges.
I am not saying that you are not using these devices, but blocking entire ISP blocks are not best practice of defending your website.
Also if you are not producing dynamic content. Maybe you should think about the age old way of running your site off a DVD. This makes your site completely write protected. This is an age old way of defending your site from being written to so that you can trouble shoot other issues.
I would like to leave you a thank you for you time and efforts. Please find away to not stress yourself by putting in individual IP's for access to your domain.

If you need to surf anonymously without exposing your IP address I suggest you go here: http://xerobank.com/xB_browser.html
It's free and open source but very slow at times.

=======================
Well, the DVD was a good idea when the site was small, but it is now well over 30 gig...and growing daily.

ricciardelli,
Granted that is the "age old" EDIT: There are BlueRay discs now.
Nothing wrong with having several Non Writable Drives in a machine. I agree it isn't practical to do things this way anymore, but if running _nix machines there are ways to "Jail" people when they get in.
Either way. I wasn't trying to impose, or grade your hosting skills. I just wanted to give some suggestions that might help you control some of this mess we have to deal with today while leaving the site open for all of us to use, and keep you from having to setup an ACL for every user on the internet that wants to view your website.
Also if you are not running an email server turn off the daemons (_nix) that allow this. Tune up the machine to do one task and one task only. The more vanilla you have the computer. The easier it is to take control.
Thanks.

I've worked on data search software for over 10 years. We sold chemical information search engines on CD(now DVD) and internet. Common DVD is 4.7GB. Just a educated guess, the data could prolly fit on a DVD. But typing all that into a database stinks and is highly prone to error, even when a highly qualified data entry person does it with a QA process. Also, $$$.
Steve's pages is really exciting. For best results, I usually navigate my way in from the front page. When I did a "save as favorite", and tried to go straight to a page, I had issues. When I start a new caliber, I try to always use his site to compare my load book data and powder company data. I use my high school English teacher's rule of min. 3 resources.
Much thanks for providing this information to the public.
