I can help you get this crap stopped if it's truly an attack but really if it's a brute fore hack attempt, they're easy to stop. Is any of your content really THAT important?

a brute force program can run 10 attacks per second no problem, it uses bots, say you have 50 bots running simultaneously all using a different IP address,(public proxies) a program like that could run 5,000 password combinations in less than 5 mins quite easily, its only a matter of time before the program gets a correct password combination.it isnt going to use any bandwidth while its attacking the only thing you have to worry about is that the password will probably be given out to 1000s of others free-loaders on request boards. but there is a program that detects if the members are coming from different ip address using the same pass.
