Jetpack

Hello,

I am building my brother a website. Today, I could not log in for hours…Wordpress kept asking me to solve math problems to prove I’m not a bot. No matter how many of these problems |I solved, it would not let me in.

After what seemed like an eternity with the host provider, he disabled my plugins and I was able to get in.

An internet search allowed me to learn of brute force. I had “whitelisted” my address as instructed on this module.

Why is this happening? I’m afraid to log out…or continue to use brute force…but I must use something…
