    Many hosts experienced problems due to mass attacks recently and temporarily disabled access to wp-admin and/or wp-login.php as a result. Your hosts may be one of them. Try contacting them about it.

    I’d also suggest reviewing http://wordpress.org/support/topic/brute-force-attacks-and-wordpress and Brute Force Attacks.

    Ok, thanks for the heads up on the hosting companies blocking access en-masse. I didn’t know they were doing this.

    Thanks for the links to the WordPress Brute Force Attacks page. The problem with all the guides including the WP one on Brute Force Attacks is that they all offer up different solutions – there doesn’t seem to be a definitive way to maximise security.

    WP is I’m afraid quickly becoming a liability for me as a web developer.
