    I received an email today from Bluehost saying they deactivated y site due to TOS violation. When I called they said Wordfence was violating their TOS. They had me rename the file in my cpanel and that deactivated the plugin. I’m not sure if this is a premium only problem, or what. I liked Wordfence, as it has blocked several login attempts, but I’m not sure why it would cause my site to be deactivated?

  • Hi Barb! Sorry to hear that. Have you tried any of the suggestions outlined in my previous message above?

    I want to mention as well that if you are running several WordPress installations on one single shared hosting account, that will quite often end up exceeding the web hosts resource limits.
