HOST BANNING MY IP ADDRESS

[Enterx]

Hello guys! Im having troubles with a fresh opencart installation.

VERSION: v1.5.3.1
EXTENSIONS: DEFAULT
CONFIGURATION: DEFAULT

PROBLEM:
Once i start browsing the shop, it takes me 4 or 5 clicks until my ip gets banned. After that im unable to access to any part of my website, including cpanel. So i have to refresh my connection or browse the shop with a proxy until i get the same problem.

TESTS
Ive tried with ie, firefox, chrome.... with my pc, laptop, tablet, smartphone and with different access points (Home,Job,Friend's,etc.) each time i get the same result.

HOST
Im from Mexico, so maybe you dont know the provider. But this is not the first time i host with them and i've never experienced this kind of issues before.( I've hosted mainly big image galleries.)

Also i have 20Gb of diskspace and unlimited bandwidth.

EXPERIENCE WITH OPENCART OR E-COMMERCE
None, this is the firs time.

HYPOTHESIS
Somehow Opencart is generating too much requests on each click, then the firewall blocks my ip preventing a DoS.

NOTES:
Im not having this problem with the admin panel or with the file manager.

It seems im not the only one experiencing this issue.

Thank you very much!

I am having the same problem as well. I have opencart running on 2 different service provider.
And only 1 of them is facing this problem. I am currently working with them to sort this out.

i think this is a new rule that is being introduced by hosts security scripts.

i recommend splitting up your images into 10 images per folder instead of having 20,000 in one folder and then scrolling up and down randomly repeatedly expecting your server to re-size them and load them instantaneously.
