So now the website is CloudFlare protected?

I really hate CloudFlare. I know it's a necessary evil, but it really gets in the way.

Our site is under CloudFlare Pro from day 1, but today we had to enable more aggressive protection since our intrusion prevention system detected possible attacks ... back to normal now.

With the recent attacks on several websites I think it's a wise move.  What's to hate?  Still the same site.  I'd rather see the browser confirmation thing for a few seconds rather than not being to access the site at all.

We believe there was some sort of brute forcing attacking directed at us since yesterday noon UTC time. You may have experience these attacks as extremely long waiting times to place orders. Cloudflare is successfully blocking this. Since there are no big drawbacks leaving this protection on (only 5 seconds waiting after you visit website again over some time), we have decided to leave it on for a bit longer and provide you flawless renting experience.
