 * The original WordPress Firewall worked very well, but hasn’t been compatible 
   with current versions of WordPress for a long time now. Version 2 introduced 
   more problems than it solved, and isn’t compatible with current WP versions either.
 * But not so this version. It solves all outstanding compatibility issues, adds
   some very useful new features (including possibly the best login protection currently
   available), but is still just as simple to use as the original.
 * Most other WordPress security solutions are too complex for the average user,
   and/or cause serious problems of their own. Many are also foils for paid subscriptions.
   None of that BS here: just good, simple and extremely effective protection for
   your WordPress blog.
