Yes, If your server cannot start a persistent session the Brute-Force Login Protection will not work for you (and other things that require and active session may not work either).

There are many reasons that your server is not able to start a session. You need to ask you hosting provider to look into it and let you know why sessions are not working. Also ask them if mod_rewrite is installed and make sure that you can use rewrite rules in your .htaccess file.

I just donated! Thank you so much for your wonderful plugin. I used to have so much trouble with my website and now I never have to worry. I appreciate all the work you do!

Thank you very much! Your plugin rescued my website and saved me a lot of time by not having to use the backup to restore it. I did few other scans from some 'pro' antivirus plugins, but nothing seemed to work, and they ask for a lot of money to go premium with no guarantee that it's going to solve the problem... With your plugin it's different, I could test it first. Thank you so much! It was a pleasure to send my donation too.

Thank you so much Eli for not only creating this plugin....but also your diligence to go beyond the call of duty to find a new hidden definition. I'll definitely be adding this to other wordpress sites and checking in regularly.
