Just change the 'limit GET POST' to what Busy posted and add a line for each IP address that you want to block.

I have a related question...

After a new site installation, my host has this .htaccess file already set up in the site's root directory:

# -FrontPage-

IndexIgnore .htaccess */.??* *~ *# */HEADER* */README* */_vti*

<Limit GET POST>
order deny,allow
deny from all
allow from all
</Limit>
<Limit PUT DELETE>
order deny,allow
deny from all
</Limit>

Like MKR above, I have a few IP's I want to block... but the "deny from all" line has me wondering, where do I list the IP's to be blocked? Do I replace the "deny from all" line, or remove it and place the "deny from 123.456.78.9" statement after the "allow from all" line?

Any help will be greatly appreciated!

R/L

to block them, make a .htaccess file if you don't all ready have one and add the url. .htaccess's contents would be:

Options +FollowSymlinks

order allow,deny
allow from all
deny from 11.22.333.444

change 11.22.333.444 with the url of the 'hogger'

I had someone use my site as their homepage once. They evidently used as a desktop background also, as visit length would be sometimes 2 hours.

I just placed a small note at the bottom of my page for a few days, asking that no one use my site for a homepage or desktop background, it stopped.
