Very interesting, maybe important and usefull for admins but unfortunately too expensive for me.

This is a really cool modification idea, and adds a nice additional layer of security to user accounts. However, I cannot say that it's worth the 45$ + renewal fees you're requesting for it. The main issue I have with that price; is that the modification is easy to create if you're a PHP programmer, and that other forum software and CMSes offer two-factor authentication modifications at no cost. If this was 5$, 10$, or even 15$ I would have purchased it in a heartbeat; I do believe developers have the right to be paid for their work, but you're simply asking for too much.

Thank you for your feedback. I appreciate that this and the other 2 factor modification I have released will not suit everybody's budget. This is not a mass market addon, however, and has a very specialist purpose. There will not be many sites that will require this level of security but for those that do I feel that $45 will represent a significant saving on their in-house or outsourced development costs.
