Brute Force Stop 1.4.4 - J3 & 4
The Brute Force Stop (bfstop) plugin monitors each failed login attempt, and logs it to the database. If the number of failed login attempts exceeds an amount given in the configuration, the plugin will prevent any further access to Joomla! from this IP address - meaning the assumed attacker can not try to login anymore; he will be blocked from accessing your whole Joomla!
Careful; If you forget your admin user password it will block you!!!!
If you find yourself in this situation you will need to manually uninstall the extension then re-install after you reset your password.
