// There should be no white space before the opening script tag

// Antispoof - Simon Booth (simon.booth@ukonline.co.uk) - 2002

// Antispoof - a little class and decendants to
// detect and/or prevent people hi-jacking and
// misusing parts of a website.
//
// Should be nice and easy to add further
// functionality to. The most common things that
// mean someone is spoofing you are set up below
//
// Example real-world use. Chuck one an antispoof_post
// in front of a generalised mailing script
// to stop 'web-marketeers' spamming the world
// using your web server as a unknowing relay.

// Example use...
// include("antispoof.php");
// $spoofer = new antispoof_self();
//
// You may optionally use the form...
//
// $spoofer = new antispoof_self(true);
//
// in which case you'll get some idea of what
// caused the supposed spoof (useful for debugging)
//
// Actual classes you'd instantiate are
// antispoof_get, antispoof_post and antispoof_self

// antispoof()
//
// Base class
//
// This does very little apart from
// setting up a load of variables for
// use by derived classes
//
// You will almost certainly want to modify
// the spoofed() method of this class!
