    Hi

    I am just wondering should I be worried? I was just looking through the login logs on my WordPress installation and I noticed that there were a few failed login attempts using the username ‘HideMy’ . Website address flexiweb.ie

    Hi, you should not be worried as it’s failed login attempt. There are hackers around who randomly try to gain access to random websites. You should be alert if in case such login attempts are huge in number.

    I was just worried that they new I used Hide My WordPress using HideMy as the login details. I had the WordPress Login area hidden yet they managed to find it.

    Okay, got your point. I checked and found that “HideMy” is username you created for me here – http://support.wpwave.com/forums/topic/ultimate-wp-query-search-filter-problem
