Thanks for bring this up Chris.
We've previously blocked a whole load of Chinese IPs that were all spiders/crawlers and doing nothing but bringing down the site performance.
I'll check through the logs and see if I can block these additional ones as well.

In the mean time, if anyone else has any issues just let the WebTeam know.

It should email you on the 5th bad attempt.

Looks like there's an automated bot trying to guess passwords on our login page, originating from Chinese IP addresses.

As such, I've banned the lot. The whole IP range. Screw 'em.

Hey Guys,
I also received 2 messages yesterday that my account was locked out as someone was trying to get into it - one was a Chinese IP address but the other was from the UK (possibly Reading area).

Many Thanks Gents, I've added a wide IP block to the site software until the same can be done to the hardware side.

Obviously, the DSC is 'of interest' for some reason so please keep reporting problems and be WARY of any unusual emails.
