For months now we keep getting attacked by an attacker that is using botnets to brute force accounts. While vbsecurity does allow us to limit the number of IP's the attacker can use, your software does not protect us from the attacks. We need other methods than IP bans to stop the attackers...
vbsec bans about 150 IPs per day due to ongoing hack attacks. A lot of valid members are getting banned to.
I unban them by removing their IP, but then they get banned again.
We are getting more and more support tickets by the hour. Please consider to add a function to whitelist IPs.
Or...
vbsecurity automatically bans IPs, but its not visible which IPs were banned by vbsecurity.
As its possible that innocent users were banned, we need to be able to check the IPs so that we can unban these if there was an error.
Valid Members who have posted multiple messages on the forum and have been around for some time will generally use a lot of the same IP's and ranges. These IPs and ranges should be considered as likely valid. As such we should prevent these IPs and ranges to be banned.

For example: export a list of IP's that have more than X login strikes.
Identify ranges that match the filter.

HI,
I have had this installed for a little over a week and have been leaving it alone to let the cron job try and get through all my members.
I am noticing a couple things:
User locations are not accurate at all. I personally know a lot of the members and the locations are way off. I...
I am evaluating my options regarding vbulletin 4.2 getting old and 5.1 not getting good enough. No decisions have been made yet, I just need to wrap my head around possible scenarios. It seems that there is a way to migrate from vb+vbseo to ips - by disabling vbseo but keeping it installed and...
