 * Hi guys.
 * I want to install the plugin, but when I search for it from the plugins menu,
   there is a ‘Not available’ message instead of ‘Install’ button for this plugin.
   For all others it is ok. Here is a screenshot:

 * I went and downloaded it manually, but now I can’t activate it. Instead ‘Activate’
   button there is again the same text: Not Available. Screenshot:

 * Any ideas what may be causing this?
 * Thanks,
    Ivica.

 * It the same for iThemes Security plugin, seems like these security plugins are
   being banned for some reason.

 * I see, so this is unrelated to the Sucuri plugin.
 * I would contact WordPress itself, and ask them if they have some sort of ban 
   against these security plugins. I just installed a new WordPress website in a
   fresh server this morning and can install the plugins that you mentioned without
   problems. You should also contact your hosting provider, maybe they have blocked
   these plugins at server level for some reason.
