Description: What this will do is allow you to view the user agent string and referrer information of an anonymous user provided there is any. If there is referrer information an icon will be displayed that provides a link to the location the anonymous user came from. The referrer information is also displayed in the "alt" display of the icon by mousing over it. User agent information is interesting as you can see if it's a google bot browser your site or whatnot.

Hey Josh this is a great mod, but i think i found a bug. I just installed it on my board, pretty sure i did everything right... but one problem: it's not showing the IP's for people who are "invisible" (with an I next to their name) and subsequent users BELOW the invisible user. anybody above the I user is perfect, just I and below. any ideas? I'm on IE 6.0, windows xp pro.
edit: i just checked the page source, and it looks like it stops logging?/showing the IP with the invisible user and then on. so it's NOT my browser, AFAICT
hmmm weird. it's no longer doing this. disregard. i'll post again if it happens anymore. once again though,great hack, especially all the anonymous user info at the bottom (why not have this for all the users?). wish it was implemented in the release version or future ones.
I instaled this mod but now it don't show anyone that is not logged in. There has been no anon people showing since the mod. I had a few people go to the site and look around but it never showed they were there.
