 * Hi Mike, with all the bot nets out there attacking wordpress sites, this plugin
   really needs a counter reset button. The This month, This year, all time stats,
   can get thrown off by one bot net attack. e.g. 227 hits at 1:20 am… and there
   is no easy way to clear it and start again.
 * Deactivating and reactivating the plugin involves reinstalling The Maxmind GeoLiteCity
   database, and of course you lose all the data. Just resetting the counters would
   be a big help.
