Probably some other plugin locked you out. Find out what security you have and disable it (or delete it via ftp).

 

edit: I bet you have "wp-clean-up-optimizer" installed. That could be the cause.

Haven't changed/installed any plugins in months. I did how ever do a WPforo update a few weeks back but has been working fine since.

Now when anyone tries to log in including Admin, we get this message:

Your IP Address 0.0.0.0 has been blocked by the Administrator for security purposes.

Please contact the Website Administrator for more details.

I am unable to access dashboard and ask if there is a work around via FTP to resolve this please?
