if you have interesting sites you will always have asswipes trying to do brute force attacks. proxy pass blocks proxies as fast as these fuckers can throw them at your box---like a thousand different proxies in 3 minutes---soon the fucker is out of working proxies.

so maybe someone gets lucky and they get a password once a month, and then post it on a password site.

if you have the right scripts in place, the first time you have "X" number of simulaneous users with same name/pass every subsequent attempt is redirected to your sales page.

this is just not much of a problem anymore---it used to be, but no more.

but the info is valuable nontheless. the more webmasters saavy enough to keep the freeloaders out, the more people will pay for memberships.

security costs a little bit true, but it is money well spent.
