I personally don't count lag exploits as "DoS's" or "DDoS's", considering they're not. They're exploits, and there's plenty of plugins to stop it, and logging IPaddresses won't help it. Anything can be used for evil, hell, I can write a DoS script in SourcePAWN.

My point to all of this is, is that DoS's won't ever stop, nor will they take down a server, and this plugin, although good, won't stop it. Lag exploits/exploits in general can, and will, however.
