I kind of feel unworthy since they only used 1 IP to try to crack my password

Nice to see the typical corporate response to something like this. Ignore it and it'll go away.
What would shock me is if someone actually started to get proactive with crap like this. You have server logs. Turn the cretins in. |

There are many many ways of limiting their access, here's one if you know their useragent https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=264932, but there are simpler thinsg you can do, don't allow guests to view members list, dont allow guests to view who's online, force password changing (vb3.8 onwards) every xx days.......the list goes on

Set guest to post limits of five or more before they can view lists. As we all mentioned earlier, it is only when a human spammer directly invades your forum, that you need to worry and report them. Bots just like any other insect, is a pest that can be dealt with in very simple precautionary measures.
As for cataloging these IP, that has already been done at 'stopforumspam.com' they already have a long list of reported IPs you can check against. |
