    Hi, I just installed this plugin on a newly created WP site and when I visited archive.org to see what the site looked like before my updates it triggered this email:

    Number of active lockouts: 17

    Last lockout was added: May 28, 2020, 5:30 pm for IP 207.241.227.106 (wwwb-app58.us.archive.org)

    Reason: Multiple erroneous requests

    Is that normal?

    Hi! It depends. Go to the Activity log, enter 207.241.227.106 into the “Search for IP or username”, click “Filter”, see results.

    Hey! How is it going? I suspect the archive.org spider tried to crawl multiple non-existing/deleted pages.

    That would make sense. Thank you.
