Logged in today to be greeted by the "you exceeded max number of login attempts" screen.

Last visit was: Wed Feb 09, 2011 7:41 am. Not been here since then.

Seems that someone has been attempting to 'guess' my password. :roll:

Nah, I have no need to change my password... they can brute force it as much as they like... it will take them more years than they have left to live. :lol:

Just change the password. And if you want change it once a week. That's the only solution.

Just a heads up to Marion11... advertising links are not permitted in your posts or your signature unless it is a link to a free and informative site related to scams... your ad link has been removed from your signature... thank you for understanding.
