 * If users try any kind of Proxy or VPN to surf website then it must auto convert
   in Real IP address by Slimstat
    Thanks

 * Slimstat already attempts to read the HTTP headers sent by popular proxies and
   VPNs. However some services do HIDE the originating IP on purpose, for privacy
   reasons. In that case there’s very little we can do on our end, as the proxy 
   service completely masks the originating IP. If you are aware of other HTTP headers
   we should be inspecting, please let us know and we’ll gladly add them to the 
   code.
 * Best,
    Jason
