 * Hello,
    I am using you plugin for all my websites and so far they are doing fine.
   I am also using the plugin limit login attemps. So I see that although I have
   blocked China and Russia from the Backend they still try to log in. How is that
   possible? I thought thta you plugin would block them BEFORE they get to wp_login.
   php Please help

 * Hi,
 * The plugin does it’s best to be the first plugin that loads within WordPress 
   when you activate the plugin. But other plugins want that spot as well so perhaps
   a later installed plugin loads before iQ Block Country.
 * Apparently your limit login plugin loads before iQ Block Country.
 * One remedy may be to deactivate iQ Block Country and activate it again. When 
   you do so it will try to be the first again!

 * Thanks for the fast answer.
    Maybe you could check for the existence of limit
   login attempts plugin. From my understanding you could get the priority with 
   [has_action](http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/has_action) And then
   just put your priority on top Juergen
