Restrict access to website by hits per hour

[jamesjames1]

Hi there,

I am experiencing data theft from my companies web site. Let me explain, a page which contains realtime data is being accessed via an anonymous access site. The information is being published on another site.

I initially wanted to just block the IP address with the firewall but the directors said that this would stop possible real uses from accessing our site.

Question: Is there a way to configure IIS or the metabase to dynamically block IP addresses which access the site more than
say 5 times????

I guess a scripts would work but its not totally practicaland I have heard that maybean IIS metabase tweek might do it...

1/ block the IP
If it's a scraper there will no legitimate users coming from it.

2/ File a DMCA (

) against the scraper site.
