Forum only readable to users

The server is being hammered again by crawlers, we are seeing tens of thousands of "users" online. Rather than give up and take the whole thing offline, I've switched it over so users must be logged in to even read the forum. I've also removed the ads completely once you're logged in since they are now basically worthless and annoying.

It's not ideal, but it keeps things online for now until I work out a better approach.

  • Golf 6 immobilser

    Apologies in advance if I have posted this in the wrong sections but does anyone know if $30 device available online blamed for spike in car thefts in Queensland | News.com.au has been successfully used on an mk6 golf? Obviously I do not want one to steal a golf mk6 but I have one myself and am a bit concerned.
    I've just sent an email enquiry to VWA if we should be worried about it.

    You can't bypass the immobiliser on a VW.

    Not even the dealership's equipment can do that without obtaining the car's immobiliser pin from the database in Germany.

      Actually I can buy a tool and the associated software package that will do just this, its not cheap though and its from a very high end respected provider that I use for other hardware. It also allows me to reprogram things like the dash mileage etc. Its not $30 though closer to S2K with the options and the database is online to stop theft and cloning by the Chinese. I doubt if these $30 tools will get round the VAG immo as its very tough
