It does the same thing, just only on the control panel. Protection where you need it, without disrupting every login. :p

How does a member set this second password?

Do people really have that many people logging in as other users on their site? I have almost 15k members on my site right now and I haven't had an issue "yet" where people have logged in as another user and my site is several years old. I would think the extra step for authentication via email would actually deter people from registering since nowadays everyone wants quick and fast.

It depends on what type of forum you have, as in what your forum is based on.

Thats a good point. There really is no benefit to logging in as another user on my site. lol

People usually try it on boards with premium membership or something similar.

I am always interested in making my site more secure but I don't understand how this will do that since the description doesn't say much.

It's going to stop brute force password attempts and thats about it.

Coincidently it can also be stopped by enabling features already in vbulletin. It doesn't make it any harder or easier for a hacker to get in to your site, it won't make your site any more secure. The only thing I see this has is a hinderance and extra step to get your users logged in.
