I have a new pay site up... yesterday I had 110,000 attempts to hack into the members area.
I don't think this number is high enough to worry about yet, but what is? A million? 3 million? How high does it get? How many proxies can these fuckers set up, and how many are out there?

I'm not terribly worried about it at this point because I have fraud protection up... muliple ips downloading from the same user/pass get removed, but when I get more members this could get out of hand.... or if the number of brute force attacks increases exponnentially. lol

How many failed logins did you have yesterday? How many does it have to be before bothering to set it up software like proxypass?
