Hello,
I am using the anti-flooding function from sh404sef and for exemple for october I got (flooding) 4660 blocked attacks (in the stat it says 4660 100.0 % 006.8 /h )
So this function is doing a great job but since several months I started getting more and more 403 errors from google and bing webmaster tools which is not a very good sign. Does this function can make the difference between a real attack (bad guy who wants my web site down) and the search engine (good guy like google or bing) ?
So I am wondering If the 403 error are a result of the anti flooding or not.
actually the configuration is :
anti-flood control 10
max number of requests 10
My questions are do you have other user of anti flood who got the same issue and do you know if I increase the number in the configuration panel the problem would be solved ? and in that case what number do you reckon ?
My last question : Do you think it is a bad or good idea that I turn off the anti flooding ?
Thanks a lot for your advises and help
