Default Someone trying to hack me

I keep getting emails saying my vbulletin.org account has been locked. 4 today.

It's showing the the IP's from Asia.

Should I worry?

Same here.....

Your account on vBulletin.org Forum has been locked because someone has tried to log into the account with the wrong password more than 5 times. You will be able to attempt to log in again in another 15 minutes.
The person trying to log into your account had the following IP address: 109.73.65.24

I am guessing they are doing a reverse brute force maybe?

As in rather than loading 1000's of pws, they load 1000's of usernames and run 5 pw's on each username?

Yeah, they are running a list of usernames against 5 passwords :O Probably harvesting them from the forums.
