Not sure where to post feature requests so I figured I would post it here. If there is a more appropriate place, please let me know!

-It would be nice to be able to set an auto blacklisting based on offenses. I have China blocked with a geoblock and don't really care about blacklisting them but I am getting a fair number of admin query string offenses and I really want to blacklist those SOBs. Most are from Turkey or the Ukraine.

-It would be super cool to be able to click on the ip address in the security exceptions log and have it bring up a whois detail of that ip address. Right now, I am doing a copy and paste into DomainTools.com to see who/where the ips are coming from. I have this option in JoomlaWatch and it bring up a popup with details.

Again, I think your components are SUPERB and the support is out of this world, I just thought I would suggest something to consider to possibly make it even better!

He he! It seems like I'm one step ahead or that I'm reading your mind :D Both of these features are already implemented in Admin Tools 2.1.4 released yesterday.

For the first request, you can either use the auto-ban of IPs of repeat offenders in the Web Application Firewall configuration. Alternatively, you can use the Geographic Blocking feature, again in the Web Application Firewall.

Regarding the second request, it's already implemented. Clicking on the magnifying glass will popup a whois query of the IP address.
