Hi,

I'm looking for a way to prevent a single IP address from having a page open in multiple windows. Any suggestions?

General idea is to make database table where upon page load IP of visitor will be inserted.
First check database table for visitors IP, and if not found show him page, else do safety percotions. Hope this will help somehow.

In general, you simply can't limit it, because HTTP is a stateless protocol.
