Saw you already had it working, but just thought I'd point out that
since you're manually adding the IP's, you could also have done this
with .htaccess

Not sure if it's any more efficient, just another method. The
overhead's got to come from *somewhere*, either the web server parsing
the .htaccess file PHP reading your script to check for banned IP's.
