 * I have had a couple instances recently from 3 different IP addresses all witin
   1 digit of each other. The stats are showing that they are looking at every single
   page / post including a file named xmlrpc.php.
 * Is this an example of an attempted attack on my website? and are there any things
   that I should be aware of? That I can do to protect myself and the site from 
   potential exploitation?
