De.scription and Message

Can anyone tell me the difference between the high and medium settings for DDoS protection (ACP/Security/Special)?

I ask because I am getting ALOT of users automatically banned...even happened to me one. I guess I need to take the security down just a notch, but would like to make as informed a decision as possible.

Thanks!

I would try increasing this setting a little first.

Max allowed sessions per guest IP.
This is helpful for people who DDoS sites & get through. With alot of programs, all the guests will have the same IP. This will eliminate that problem.
