 * Just found it.
 * Adding a * to filter, show user agents, then empty the other one and then I can
   finally delete everything.
 * Thanks much,

 * Delete gives pretty much the same error message. A quick browse just shows basically
   who the author was. Since it’s just me does this table even do anything? 🙂

 * The smartest way is to learn SQL. 🙂
 * Or you can use phpMyAdmin if your hosting provider provides it or if you have
   it on your self hosted site.
 * I actually use a script that I just run using the SQL command line option of 
   phpMyAdmin:
 * TRUNCATE `wp_itsec_lockouts`;
    TRUNCATE `wp_itsec_log`; TRUNCATE `wp_itsec_temp`;
 * Or there are other plugins that will let you enter SQL commands directly to the
   database as well.

 * A better way is to just empty the 3 tables with the itsec prefix.

 * Thanks for that. It seems most of these are just bots using the generic name 
   of admin and trying to brute force the site.
 * I installed something – not sure what – that added a check box on the logon page
   that simple says, I’m a human. If you don’t check it then you can’t logon. No
   more emails saying someone tried to logon with a non-existent account anymore.

 * That allowed the web site to work but causes 500 errors on the admin pages. So
   I just removed all of their code altogether.
 * Everything works again. 🙂
 * Thanks,

 * The secure.htaccess file looks ok to me. Leave an email address and I’ll email
   it to you and you can tell me what’s wrong with it.
