I've installed it now and it works fine, thanks for the tip.

What I wonder is whether it's worth the trouble to register the site, 
maintain the rules and have users install a plugin. I'm also sceptical
because this is an opt-in solution for a security feature, which means
that a lot of users won't benefit.

Thanks,
Philipp
