   I've noticed that some hits from China, Indian and the Netherlands have been trying to find my login URL. I assume they are trying to hack my website. How can I block them with Counterize?
   No IP addresses are showing up in my Counterize Dashboard. What do I need to do have the IP addresses show up?

   Thanks!
   P.S. This plug in is great!

   Hi,

   Counterize doesn't block IP addresses.

   I am also under attack and I personally use a combination of those plugins:

   - Bad Behavior (allows only "good behavior" user-agents)
   - Custom Registration Link (modify the registration link)
   - Gab Captcha 2 (captcha for the comments section)
   - IP Filter (block or grand access to the specified list of IP addresses)
   - Limit Login Attempts (great plugin that prevents brute force attacks on login page, and sends mail when it happens)
   - SABRE (Protects the registration page, but seems to be less and less effective)

   It could seem extensive, but remove any of those plugins and you will get attacked and/or spammed.
