    Hello,

    for a few days I am receiving several messages per day, like this:

    Of course it was not me… is that something I should worry about?

    Thanks

    Hi,

    This is not any error but just a notification email which is sent to you when a user visiting your website is trying to login to your website but was not able to do it.

    This is sent when a user fails to login because of either wrong username or password or due to any other reason.

    You can turn it off from Notifications Setup by disabling the “Email when a User Fails Login” option.

    Thanks

    Since last Friday I have received about 20 emails like rebus76. Today alone I already received 15 emails.

    We do not even have a login possibility on our website. So what is happening here.

    I would like to have an answer quickly. When I block the IP addresses I see that these come from the everywhere in the world.

    Hope to hear from you soon.

    I am continuing to receive such emails as well, a dozen a day. If an user is trying to login that must be some kind of unauthorised robot. But the question is, why is the alert coming from Clean Up Optimizer?

    I just checked one of our other sites and two hackers had placed a message on it. On that site I do not have Clean Up Optimizer.
    So I think the Clean Up Optimizer just blocks the access. I am not sure. I hope I get an answer soon. I have requested my webhosting party for an answer as well.
