Could Wordfence be affecting programs outside the WordPress folder?

    I have WordPress installed in mydomain.com/blogdir/
    I have my Vbulletin forums in mydomain.com/forums/

    Yesterday I set up Wordfence. Then I found there was a new error in Vbulletin. When a user quotes a post, Vbullet automatically links back to the original post. Now, those links back are to https urls – and my site isn’t on a secure certificate, so all the links are broken.

    I haven’t touched the Vbulletin setup at all – all I’ve been doing is install WordPress plugins. Could that be responsible? And if so, how can I fix this? (Deactivating Wordfence didn’t solve it.)

    Oh – hosting environment – Apache/Linux, php 5.4.26.

    Update – it looks like something else (a Vbulletin add-on) was responsible, and the problem showing up at the same time I installed Wordfence was just a coincidence.
