some posts in here have asked about AOL users not being able to vote. I came up with an easy but painful way to fix this. You can enable the logging on the poll, if you are concerned about duplicate votes. But put "no checking" on the general settings under the Check IP table option.

Since AOL uses shared IP's the script sees that someone using the same IP as someone else voted, so this causes people to not be able to vote. By remove the check table, aol users can vote.

But by logging the iPs you can look at the stats after the vote has closed, and you will have to cross reference the ip agains the host. Then just filter out the duplicates.
