In reply to: The "admin" login …I know these attacks have been going on forever. But either it only caught up to me in the last few months or they’ve become ubiquitous. I have three or four sites that get hit at least once a week, and they are hosted on different servers.

In reply to: The "admin" login …I’m currently liking Login Security Solution .
Though I’d still rather be able to instantly toast anyone who tried the admin login.

In reply to: The "admin" login …I actually only added one security plugin per site … testing to see what I like best. 😉 I had not run across Wordfence though … will go look. Thanks for that.
It just seemed to me that someone MUST have, once looked at all those attempts coming in as “admin” and said, “I’m gonna really fix that.” But maybe not the way I was thinking. Or maybe it’s harder than I was thinking … seemed to me that somehow: IF user=admin and pw=anything, THEN destroy … well, that seemed like a good if/then …

In reply to: wordpress.com stats — pageviews at Nill …The stats for the prismadental.com site started working mysteriously about 12 hours after I posted. I’m still troubleshooting the nowzenstore.com problem and at the moment — my guess is that it has something to do with redirection and multiple domain ownership under Yahoo’s roof.
Leaving the issue open for now …
