Pennywize is pretty old school.. The best solution I have seen so far is proxypass, cause it does all the shit that pennywize and iprotect does, but it also has a central open-proxy db..

Pennywize won't stop the brute forcer from doing a huge open proxy attack on you, it'll only stop 1 proxy at a time (if it can identify them).

Check it out, I am pretty pleased with it so far.

Cheers,
Backov
