[Solved] Brute Force Attack On My Cpanel Account

[apbroz@yahoo.com]

Hi,

I think that I may have caused my account to be flagged as having a brute force attack and as such has been locked. It says to wait a few minutes to try again and that any subsequent attempts will be futile because it will make it take longer. I tried after about 15 minutes and then another 45 minutes still displaying that I was increasing the time. Could you let me know what the deal is with the script that controls this? It seems like it is written by someone extra cautiously. Any info would be great. Also, I never recieved my email for my account (apbroz, adrenalineimpulse@gmail.com) I initially typed it incorrectly but have corrected it since. So my real question is what is the time frame on the brute force attack locking mechanism?
