Administrative and Maintenance Tools - [DBTech] vBSecurity v2 (vB4)

vBSecurity: What is it?
vBSecurity keeps a watchful eye over your forum even when you are not there, and has the capability to alert you of any suspicious activity.

Uses

vBSecurity is the ideal product for forums that are concerned about security, or wish to be alerted when something suspicious happens.
It keeps a watchful eye on your configuration file, ensuring that it does not get modified by mods or plugins.
Another important feature is the ability to add a secondary login, unique to each administrator, that is required before accessing the AdminCP. Ideal for forums where multiple administrators may share login information, or where administrators may log in from public computers.
Add in quick settings for the most vital vBulletin Options and Usergroup password settings, vBSecurity can easily be called one of the most comprehensive security suites for your vBulletin forum.

Un-installed, way too many problems with this when enabled, as per the same as Old SchoolDSL

[DragonByte Tech]

Am I to assume you are also refusing to provide constructive feedback in the same way the user you refer to refused?

@DBT:
I changed the memcached settings in config file. At first , I received the security notification.
Thats fine.

But again every 2 or 3 days, I get the same notification (thrice at the same time)

vBSecurity has detected a security alert regarding config.php Variable Tampering:
$vbulletin->config['Datastore']['prefix'] is new: NULL

The actions you have configured in the Security Center have been taken.

Got the same message thrice yesterday. While I changed the memcached setting a week ago.
