    vBulletin Brute Forcing?

    Many users on my site have recently got their accounts stolen. The only way i can think of this happening is brute force. Is likely in vBulletin, and is there a way to stop it?

    Make sure the Login Strike System is enabled.

    It will block user logins for 15 minutes after entering an incorrect password 5 times. It's a pretty good brute force protection IMHO.
    Planning to continue using VB 3.8 post EOL? Then join the VB 3.8 Forever group and vB3Forever.org!

      That is already activated. It is unexplainable how he has hacked so many accounts.
