Do you use the Better WP Security plugin? It's a good all-in-one security plugin to limit login attempts, hide the backend, among other things.

That's great Zac i'll look forward to that one, I have tried a few things like putting a black html file in the plugins directory (I think it was that anyway) I was interested to know if it was possible to move the wp-admin or rename it you know that type of scenario or what methods are best!
