In worst cases the image generation is found to be an effective way for what
you're asking for...
see Yahoo, Altavista, and many others...

Hello,

I don't know if this is the right group for it, but I'm posting it here
anyway...

I have an online browser based gaming site (not displaying the URL for
possible advertising rules in this group, since it's not really relevant) ,
and I got a little problem here... My visitors try to be online as much as
possible, logged in... they have to update things, by hand... now, visitors
get smarter and smarters, and while they are sleeping, they have
scripts/macro's running to update their information.

Now my problem: is there ANY way I could detect that macro? I was thinking
of generating a number and displaying it in an image, but that will cost the
player a lot of time. I was also thinking of automatically logging out once
in the 30 minutes, but that will cause a lot of irritation too...

Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance,

Leon Mergen
