This plugin locks user account after given number of incorrect login attempts. This makes brute force and dictionary attacks nearly impossible.

== Description ==

Default Wordpress installation is vulnerable to brute force and dictionary attacks, because there is no limit how many times user can use invalid password before finding the correct one. This plugin closes this security hole by introducing maximum number of invalid login attempts. When someone exceeds this number, his/her account becomes locked, and can be unlocked only by requesting new password (using Lost Password option). This makes brute force and dictionary attacks nearly impossible.
