Contact Us IP Ban

Prevents some spam sent using the contact us form by temporarily banning the spammer from using the contact us form by IP.

By default if more than 3 messages are sent via the contact us form in any 30 minute period from a single IP then the IP is blocked from sending any messages via the contact us form for 30 minutes. If the spammer continues to attempt to send mail from the contact us form their ban period will be reset and their ban period will be extended.

An admin page Admin-_Configuration-_IP Ban Setup is added to the Zen Cart admin to allow the number of attempts allowed, the attempt period and the ban period to be set.
