deny from IP address not working...

New postby Mesmer7 » 03 Jul 2009 19:30

The spam bot from 2009news4.biz (IP 194.8.75.145) has been repeatedly accessing my web site and filling out the same form over and over. I tried to block it with the following in the .htaccess, but the bot keeps getting through.


<Limit GET HEAD POST>
order deny,allow
deny from 65.39.72.142
deny from 66.34.204.26
deny from 66.34.0.*
deny from 66.34.255.*
deny from keywordspy\.com
deny from keywordspypro\.com
deny from spyfu\.com
deny from spyfoo\.com
deny from foospy\.com
deny from fuspy\.com
deny from serpanalytics\.com
deny from 2009news4\.biz
deny from 195.91.229.193
deny from 194.8.75.145
deny from 92.241.164.106
allow from all
</LIMIT>

I also tried to reverse the allow/deny order, but the bot was still able to access my site. What am I doing wrong and how do I block this spam bot?
