Seeing that security is always a must, may I suggest adding more to stop this and others. Having being blasted a number of times from these little bastards, we tried out a firewall system for joomla back at ver j1.0.8 and today we are at j1.5.10 and must say, THANK the lord for this little baby. Need more info, just look up jfirewall and you won't regret it. We've seen quite a few of these attacks on LB and we are running this even with the few quirks it has where these little muck-a-lucks are blocked out with no damage to our site as of yet, the firewall has done its job and done it well.
