There's a typo in administrator/components/com_admintools/controllers/log.php line 18. It reads:

$id = FOFInflector::getString('id','', $this->input);

It should read:

$id = FOFInput::getString('id','', $this->input);

If you do that change it should now work.

Thanks very much, Nicholas! I'm guessing that you'll make this change to the SDN?

No, no change. This is a minor issue as there is a workaround (manually adding the IP address). Besides, you do know what I think of long term IP blacklisting: it's utterly ineffective, can be worked around easily and has the potential to block legitimate traffic.
