For most users this will be the case. However certain providers route their users via a cluster of proxys. In some cases, particularly the AOL browser, this results in different IPs being forwarded as the user moves between pages. We take account of this by not checking the entire IP by default but only the first "three quads" (<samp>A.B.C</samp>). Again in most cases this will be fine. However again AOL uses IPs which can vary so much that checking only the first two quads results in a fairly static IP being available for session validation.</p> -<p>If you are experiencing problems related to this you can set the Session IP validation parameter found in <code>Admin->General->Server Configuration->Security Settings</code> to <samp>A.B</samp>.
