Well I really wanted something that logged failed login attempts for extra security so noone tries to go on a password guessing spree. Anyway of doing this where it shows this in the logs:

$IP - $TIME - USERNAME - *BAD PASSWORD HERE* - *(THE USERS REAL PASSWORD)


That way I can tell if someones trying to guess. I think this would be good for E-Blah.  


heyyyyyyy

lol ... No, I'm not doing it just because I would hate to know that other admins could see my "guess".    And plus, the encryption would mess up ... lol.


I do installs for $25 and upgrades for $20.

Oh no. Not like in the admin page. Like make it so you can store the logs in the prefs directory and only the real "admin" that runs the forum can see them...

I just lock them out for 15 minutes after three failed attempts.  I had it set to lock them out for an hour... but it was annoying when i got my password wrong

I'd rather know so I can ban the user. I know someone that goes around and guesses passwords constantly and may end up at my forum (He doesn't like me very much)...
