What part of "YOU  CAN'T RELY ON IP ADDRESSES FOR AUTHENTICATION!!!"
don't you understand?  IT DOES NOT WORK!  PERIOD... EVER, at least on the
real Internet world!

I've seen a page request, and the images on that page come from different IP
addresses in the AOL block of addresses.  I know they came from the same
browser, yet they show different IP addresses. AOL is not the only place that
proxies/caches traffic from their users.  You can't trust IP addresses to match
with the browser they came from, not even within one single page load.
