As good as iThemes has been, the longer it was around the more problems I began to have. For instance some of my plugins did not play well with it. I still think it is a great program for most people and would use it again if not for the need I have for the plugins it doesn’t like. It also appears to slow down my site just a little. I use All In One WP Security & Firewall Plugin. It is not as popular and maybe not as good as iThemes, but it works well for me.
