Yes iam aware of that, but its the best trcking method i can think of.
Tracking just the hostname is not accurate since with every router 
restart, that info is changing.

Tracking the visitor by settign a cookie to its browser is not 
perfect/accurate since he can manipulate its broswer data or flush the 
cookies but this is the best one can do after having people register on 
the webiste.

Or perhaps trying to identify the cookie + hostname is even better.

Can you help me with this particuler problem please?
