Forum Firewall
butchs:
My site and your permission to use software that I spent many months developing for free.
BubblePig:
Fair enough. I just wanted to make sure it was your site and not somebody else who was hijacking it.
PS Thanx for the mod.
butchs:
Hijacking my site is not a good idea as it will incise me to even more devious programming...

I am getting DOS Attack notifications from links that are valid links, or does that mean those are the links they are attempting the hack?

You are not using the mod correctly. You need to whitelist you regular members. Go to "admin/ Members/ permissions / General Permissions - "Regular Members"/ Forum Firewall Whitelist Group" and make your members EXEMPT.
If you are getting hits due to the crawl rate then by all means read my reply to the person you quoted. I am not going to repeat such a recent post.
Security is only as good as the one who implements it...
Search and read the HELP's I posted in this thread and within the mod.
You need to run the mod for a few days with logging enabled before enabling blocking to work out the issues particular to your forum.
