    Hi,

    I coulndt reach my site anymore. I called my hosting provider, and they said that they blocked the Ip because wordfence overloading the host server with post requests. Im a novice in WordPress or in wordfence, so i cant figure this out. I wanted to buy the paid version, but now iam waiting due to this problem. The server constantly says:

    95.97.xxx.xxx – – [03/Apr/2015:14:49:02 +0200] “POST /wp-admin/admin-ajax.php HTTP/1.1” 200 583 “http://www.*****/wp-admin/admin.php?page=WordfenceActivity” “Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10.10; rv:36.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/36.0”

    And that a lot…

    Whats the problem and how can i fex this> I want to use wordfence, but i dont wnna be blocked by my hosting provider by spamming 🙂

    We’d need to see what options are checked. One thing you might do is disable live traffic as soon as you activate it. That should help immediately.

    Turn off High sensitivity and uncheck images if exe. Check disable code execution in the uploads folder instead.
