foreach ( $addrs as $ip )
 {
  if ( $ip )
  {
  $this->ip_address = $ip;
  break;
  }
 }
[/code]

[code] /sources/classes/class_session.php
if ( $this->>ipsclass->vars['match_ipaddress'] == 1 )
 {
 $query .= " AND ip_address='".$this->ipsclass->ip_address."'";
 }

$this->>ipsclass->DB->simple_construct(array( 'select' => 'id, member_id, running_time, location',
                                                           'from'   => 'sessions',
                                                           'where'
