I have a vBulletin forum and I know some users are sharing account but I'm not sure who. Is there a way I can prevent account sharing? If anyone can help they will be paid!

You can hire a vBulletin coder to code you a modification
which will make auto reports when more than 1 IP enters
an account ofc you can also make exceptions ect...

I.e. if a user makes an account from the UK and someone
logins in from the US it will make a report and you can investigate
or auto ban the user ect...

Hire a vB coder something like this should not cost more than lets say
around $30 - $40 depending on the options you want ect...

Do you know any vB coder that can do this? Maybe you can code it for me?

I'm not a vB coder but if you were to ask on vb.org or if you made a
post here on KWWH in the marketplace i'm sure one KWWH's brilliant coders
could make you something.

You could use this: http://www.vbulletin.org/forum/showthread.php?t=125871

It will make a thread in a specified forum or send you a PM if someone logs into a different account from the same PC. It's cookie based, so when someone logs out it will tell him "All cookies cleared", even though one left, the one that will identify his PC.

P.S. It won't work if he manually deletes the cookie.
