    My website(forum) has been continously getting attacked by DOS over the past 24 hours by many different dedicated servers set up by one person from a rivaling website. I have purchased a hosting plan from this forum by a member by the name of funforums. I have plan A from the topic below and was considering upgrading to his new plan but not anymore.

    I reported an attack that crashed my site before and told him it was a DOS attack. He said the server is completely protected but I am continuously being attacked now and still am. I don't know what to do anymore I am loosing the members of my community over this and in doing so I am loosing the months of work and money I put into my website. Does anyone know a solution? Someone suggested for him to add the programs below, but he has refused for some reason?

    Dos_Delfate

    Mod_Evasive

    APF (Advanced Policy Firewall)

    A friend also gave me a temperary fix which was to add the code below to my index
    $ip = $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'];
    if($ip == '190.232.150.178' or '208.43.251.234' or '173.51.207.138' or '69.162.64.123'){ die("404");}
    Code (markup):
    But I would have to be online, and I would have to notice that I am being attacked in order to block it and I can not be on my site 24/7...

    I have tried adding it to the Deny IP on the cPanel X but that doesn't seem to be doing anything at all either.
