 * There are so many script-kiddies and bots out there exploring our sites for mistakes
   and vulnerabilities that having Wordfence protecting your site is not only a 
   must for the integrity of your site but also for your sense of well-being. Beyond
   protecting your site the author of Wordfence keeps us informed of rapidly developing
   security threats and what to do about them. I love getting emails from my site
   letting me know that Wordfence is blocking someone because of their behavior (
   behavior that doesn’t constitute the manner in which real visitors behave).
