How do you stop harassment comments?

[Tom K]

I have a person or persons who posts harassment style comments to my 1.7.1 pixelpost photoblog. I know their IP address from looking in the admin panel.

Is there an add-on or some way that I can block the person from posting comments on my photoblog?

Thank you,
Tom K.

I'm using this: http://www.pixelpost.org/forum/showt...erate+comments

Problem solved.

You can also use a .htaccess file to deny the access from that specific address.

Allow from all
Deny from 123.123.123.123

Where 123.123.123.123 is the ip address where the comments are posted from. For further reference you can read this.

If you go into your admin panel, and go to 'Options' -> 'Spam control' you'll see an input area called 'Black list' to which you can add the IP of the spammers.
