BBQ: Block Bad Queries
Add to ListInstall, activate, and done!
Powerful protection from WP’s fastest firewall plugin.
Block Bad Queries (BBQ) is a simple, super-fast plugin that protects your site against malicious URL requests. BBQ checks all incoming traffic and quietly blocks bad requests containing nasty stuff like eval(
