 * Have a number of Reported Proxy notices and one is my own IP. What is this feature
   actually telling us? is it saying the user is using a proxy or the user is using
   a known spamming proxy? I am running through Cloudflare so presumed that it was
   just informing of the proxy server, but would appreciate clarification
 * Thanks

 * Hi websitu,
 * Yes, that’s mean the user is using a proxy, but not necessarily mean a proxy 
   Spam.
 * If you use CloudFlare, you need to deactivate IP check in WangGuard settings 
   because CloudFlare don’t report the real IP and WangGuard can block all registrations.
 * All CloudFlare IPs are white listed, but if CloudFlare add new IPs and thy are
   not white listed in WangGuard, you can have many false positive.
 * Kind regards
