bluepixeldesign on "[Plugin: Wordfence Security] Block IPs of all 'admin' logins"

I ditto the previous requests! I installed Word Fence specifically to stop the brute force attacks on my site, and the biggest seems to be attempting to login with the username "admin".

I have my settings set to "Immediately lock out invalid usernames", and I guess no one is actually getting in, but it was my understanding that each attempt slows down your site. I'd very much like to stop the attempts if I can!

Is there any way to do that?
