After a little research I've discovered that lots of errors come from the same IP's (not in this list, I've already banned them). None of these members tried to login at that time. None of these IP's were ever used before by these members. All IP's are from outside of my country, normally, almost 100% of the regular IP's are from inside my country.

This all started yesterday and is still going on.

Any ideas on this??

I've installed Stop Forum Spam, but ofcourse this only refuses spamming registering attempts, not log in attempts.

Seems like a lot of SMF forums are being 'attacked'.
