Hey!

My userid=1 user is being attacked by some bot trying to log in. This user is luckly not with admin permissions, but I forgot how to block IPs. I have the IP, thanks to vBulletin obviously, but how can I stop these attacks?

Thanks!

You can block them through the Admin CP ("User Banning Options"), or you can block them from accessing Apache through .htaccess.

Make sure you have enabled the "Login Strikes" system too. It is also located in the vBulletin Options.
