I wasn't so lucky to get nice warnings. When one of my sites had an attack, my host shut it down until I 'Did something about it'. I installed Wordfence. Weeks later, they shut me down saying the CPU utilization was "an abuse". My sites were down for 2 days and I had no alternative except to upgrade to a VPS account. Looking back, I think the combination of high traffic AND WordFence is the cause. The host extracted big bucks from me and therefore had no incentive to help me diagnose and fix the true cause. My suggestion to Mark: Adjust the default setting.
