vBSecurity compares the values in the actual config.php file vs what $vbulletin->config holds every time a page loads, so that's not the case.

how can i install "pro"?

You'll need to purchase it from www.dragonbyte-tech.com and then perform the same steps you performed when installing Lite :)

So... I disabled the superadmin whitelist thingy and have subsequently banned mysef.

Any ideas on how to rectify?

EDIT *: Resolved. I logged in via a different IP and removed the super admin setting.

Can you please be more specific? What "whitelist thingy", and what is the message you're receiving?

vBSecurity v1.0.6
Feature: Improved logging details for Control Panel actions
Change: Changed the Branding display method to inject itself into the copyright footer (underneath vBulletin copyright) instead of the page footer.
Change: Changed the Branding Free Key to a more secure key.

Could you make it possible to position Data[IPADDRESS] at a random place within the phrase ("dbtech_vbmail_security_alert_body"&"dbtech_vbsec urity_access_new_ip_message")?. Like: $IPADDRESS ?

I want to restyle the email text completely with a new location of the IP address.

sry for my horrible English :o

Dear DragonByte Tech,

I have an Idea which perhaps could be easily integrated within vBulletin. I’ very interested in what you think about it.

My idea is about DDoS protection for vBulletin by Cloudflare. Cloudflare is focussed on DDoS protection and offers great free services for the public. Since Cloudflare provides a webservice API via an API Key, the DDoS protection of Cloudflare can be utilized by just invoking URIs by vBulletin to block attackers right in the Cloud so they even can reach the target system.

The technical approach is done by invoking URIs for blocking and unblocking IP addresses. A block could be triggered by any relevant alert to be defined by the vBulletin operators to fit their needs.

In vbulletin it could look like this ...

Admin Panel Menu (example):
Attachment 144558

Action (example):
Attachment 144560

Options (for example):
Attachment 144559


All you need is a free account with Cloudflare, the generated security tokens and of course your addon. :)

Example Block:
Example unblock:

Note: Since Cloudflare is acting as a reverse proxy operators should install mod_cloudflare for apache to see real origin IP addresses instead of Cloudflare proxy IP addresses....see here.
