Cannot access my site while plugin is activated

    Hi guys,

    Can you do something about it?
    I’ve been using BWPS on all my sites and believed it the best security plugin. However, one thing was really annoying: once in a while I had a trouble to access some of my sites as admin, although I whitelisted my IP, did not use time block, and used all possible paths: domain/wp-admin, domain/special_login_slug, domain/special_register_slug, changed .htaccess. Finally recently 4 of my sites stopped to show admin area completely and only allowed to access it when the plugin is renamed/removed via ftp. As soon as I return the plugin, the site immediately gets blocked and again I have no admin access.
    Looks like I have no other choice than to remove it from all the sites and replace with some other security plugin on the market. Unless there is a solution to this problem, which I much hope to find with your help, as I wish to keep this plugin since really got used to it very much :).

    Hi, I am willing to change the rating as I found the reason for blocking the admin area. Can you suggest how to do this?
    Also is there a way to have the whitelisted IP override any other security settings, such as number of wrong password tries, time slots blocking for away mode, etc?
    I like this great plugin!
