The reason the "firewall" quick in on the subscription page is that one of the security rules is 'script', and quiet rightly so. However due to the checking method used the firewall kicks in when it sees:

do=viewsubscription

Notice the bold/underlined part

The good news is that this can be resolved, but it is a hack to the mod. The following instructions explain what needs to be done, if you want to implement it then I strongly recommend first testing it on an test server. Hopefully this will help the mod dev makes this mod one of the best available here:

Right, you need to goto:

ACP -> Plugins & Products -> Plugin Manager

Once there look for the entries for "Product : vBFirewall", this should only have one plugin called 'vBFirewall' which uses the 'init_startup' plugin. Click edit

Copy all the text in 'Plugin PHP Code' into notepad.

Now follow these steps:

• Find the line that reads:
  
  
  Code:

  ---

  'st=-', 'cat%20', 'include', '_path=');

  ---

• On a new line immediately after this paste in:
  
  
  Code:

  ---

  $securityexclusions = array(
        'do=viewsubscription'
);

  ---

• Find the line that reads:
  
  
  Code:

  ---

  $cracker = strtolower($cracker);

  ---

• On a new line immediately after this paste in:
  
  
  Code:

  ---

  $cracker= str_replace($securityexclusions, '', $cracker);

  ---

Once done, copy all the edited text in notepad back into the 'Plugin PHP Code' in ACP, then click save

What this is actually doing is creating an extendible security rule exclusion list, so if any other VB queries string invoke the vbFirewall you can add another exclusion.

IMPORTANT : I have only run this on a basic test server I have, do not try this unless you are absolutely comfortable with plugins/php etc.

A here are some suggestions for the next version:

• Rather than add the logs to a flat file on the server store this in the DB and then create an ACP page to view/search/manage logs
• Add option to send a PM or Email or both
• If a specific IP invokes the firewall more than X times in Y seconds/minutes auto place this IP on the vBulletin ban list.
• If a specific IP can be associated to an actual forum user account auto ban that user.

One other teeny weeny little thing, you need to mention that this is based on the GPL licensed code found here : http://www.cback.de/cback_software/standalonect.php ;)
