Haven't accessed wordpress sites and still get flagged

    For some reason a few sites I haven’t accessed much are getting the “flagged for potential security violations” message. So I have to remove the plugin via FTP from my folder and put it back/reactivate after logging in, just so I can access the wordpress site. This is just by me trying to go to the login screen without having even accessed the site. Any idea why this is happening? I am using Firefox 24, and not sure if closing the browser and reopening several times throughout the day while it reloads its tabs has anything to do with it.

    Would like to note I just tried accessing a site that I previously had already fixed but a few moments ago it flagged me again.

    You may have a virus/malware on your computer that has caused your IP to be flagged– all of our data is centralized, so if you have failed login attempts at any BruteProtected web site, you can be blocked from ALL websites with our plugin installed.
