Hello,
our host recently contacted us about unnatural high cpu usages for which he had to disable our site. it turns out our site was attacked like many others by some automated spam bot which seems to hijack and start making posts every few mins jamming the server resources. now I am unable to even login to the admin cp to turn the board off
the host has turned the site to only being able to view it from my IP address. otherwise the bot starts jaming their CPU.
can anybody help me, the site is a semi active site for archive purposes and I do not have any site technicians to look at it and I have limited knowledge of vbulletin and coding
