    Hello,

    I am building my brother a website. Today, I could not log in for hours…Wordpress kept asking me to solve math problems to prove I’m not a bot. No matter how many of these problems |I solved, it would not let me in.

    After what seemed like an eternity with the host provider, he disabled my plugins and I was able to get in.

    An internet search allowed me to learn of brute force. I had “whitelisted” my address as instructed on this module.

    Why is this happening? I’m afraid to log out…or continue to use brute force…but I must use something…

    Were you running Jetpack 4.2? That was released for a short time and, in a specific set of circumstances, particularly a specific config of W3 Total Cache, along with Jetpack 4.2 resulted in this problem.

    If you delete and reinstall Jetpack, it’ll install the older version—4.1.1—which does not suffer this issue. 4.2.1 to resolve this and another issue will be released early next week.

    Cheers and our apologies!
