vBulletin Attacks

Any other vBulletin admins notice attacks recently?

Foot.ie was attacked in a big way this morning, with bots attempting automated logins on dozens of accounts. Foot.ie locks down accounts after 5 failed login attempts and emails the account holder, and I receive bounce messages if the email addresses in their profiles are incorrect. I received over a hundred of these in the space of about half an hour this morning, on multiple usernames from multiple IP addresses. These are just the ones that bounced, remember.
