Useable plugin turns randomware

    Installed this plugin years ago and was very satisfied.

    However since today I could not enter my site anymore. Got a message that I only can enter my site after upgrading to the ‘PRO’ version.

    Took me 2 hours to get access to my own site again. Deleting the plugin was not enough. the plugin installed three other files -which I found too- enabling me to access my own site.

    I think this plugin in general should be deleted from the WordPress repository.

    As for the title, of course I meant ransomware, not randomware.

    Hello @wvdploeg

    From what you are explaining this is definitely not our plugin. Our plugin does not “block” users from logging and ask them to upgrade to PRO.

    I am 100% sure that this is not our plugin. Can you please double check from your end and update the review?

    Thank you very much.
