Greetings, fellow members of OTLand.

I'm currently running a server called, Narkia, which is a success. But the problem is that there is one guy who can manage to bring down the website. Not sure how he does it. He does not shut down Xampp, but I have to shutdown Xampp, then start it again, to make the website work.

I have secured everything, players are only allowed to see the website, nothing else. No one has access to any folders or my database.

So I'm woundering if anyone has the same problem. He just do something, then the website goes down, even if Xampp is running.
When I blocked his IP from viewing the website, it didn't go down until he changed his IP (I blocked his IP under who was allowed to get information from the website which means "View the website").

Is there any way I can prevent him from shutting down my website?

INFO:
Gesior AAC for 0.3.2
Xampp 1.6.8
Players only have access to the website
Website is: Narkia - Latest News

Information about him:
A 12-year old swedish boy with helicopter fetish.
He likes blue neonsticks, and use to spin them while he rubs his nipples and listen to Dragostea Din Tei.

I will of course rep those who deserves it, no one else.

SOLUTION
Instead of just write it's solved, I will write here how I solved it. So people won't post new threads.
And that goes for everyone, if your problem is solved, write how!

Added
Code:
sleep(1);
In layout.php
This code will wait one second every refresh and then query, so if user holds his finger at F5 it won't really work, because query is send every 1 second.

Found the solution myself, but thanks to everyone who tried to help me.
