Hi Dave, if you are relying so much on the geocode API (on the server side) and you have to use a shared environment I would suggest that you should really think of being a user of the Google Maps API Premier (see http://code.google.com/intl/en/apis/maps/documentation/geocoding/#Limits). Or you have to decide not to work in a shared environment that uses only a limited amount of IPs. Or you have to use another geocoder with a higher limit. I think even Google is not able to give away all services for free.
