i've ran both of these password protection scripts, and there is good/bad to each of them

does a member being "locked out" lead to cancelled memberships? YES, very much so!! i have LOTS of proof of that

one issue with strongbox was that it temporarily blocks users "sharing" passwords...it has a 're-enable' function, but even if you re-enable the IP itself is usually blocked as well..

it was very frustrating for members to email me they've been locked out (most often just because of the number of logins per day they do, or entering a wrong password or captcha image word), and i "re-enable" the username, only to have them email me they still cant get in...strongbox has no way for the webmaster to over-ride its block of users
