If your SSI script is in perl, you can make a wrapper like this:

    #!/usr/bin/perl -w
    if ($ENV{REMOTE_ADDR} ne 'xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx')

        #
        # Put the rest of the counter code in here.
        #
    }

Obviously, you'll want to substitute your static IP address for
xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx.

Since this isn't really a FreeBSD-related question, you'll probably find
more helpful info about CGI/SSI on the comp.infosystems.www.authoring.cgi
newsgroup.

Good luck,
