How can i ban this bot
 
latley on my forum i have been having hundreds of bots from ec2-54-70-216-122.us-west-2.compute.amazonaws.com

When you view whosonline and display user agent this is what it says below

ec2-52-89-87-158.us-west-2.compute.amazonaws.com
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/41.0.2228.0 Safari/537.36

here is another one

ec2-54-70-213-207.us-west-2.compute.amazonaws.com
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/41.0.2228.0 Safari/537.36

I have tried banning them with my ban spiders plugin and i have also used my ip deny manager to ban numerous ip ranges but they keep coming back in their hundreds.

Is there a way to completley ban this bot.This is what i added to my spider list below.

us-west-2.compute.amazonaws.com
compute.amazonaws.com
amazonaws.com
compute-1.amazonaws.com
us-west-2.compute.amazonaws.com
.us-west-2.compute.amazonaws.com

Am i doing something wrong.Many thanks for any help on this.

Put this in your .htaccess file.


Code:
<Files ~ ".*">
order allow,deny
allow from all

Deny from us-west-2.compute.amazonaws.com
Deny from compute.amazonaws.com
Deny from amazonaws.com
Deny from compute-1.amazonaws.com
Deny from us-west-2.compute.amazonaws.com
Deny from .us-west-2.compute.amazonaws.com

</Files>

mmmm once i add that code it does work but there is a problem.If you go to my home page here http://jandeane81.com/index.php and look on the right where it says theonetruth news you will see it working perfectly.Once i add that code above to my htaccess it stops its preventing my feeds from displaying.I created that widget from http://feed.mikle.com/

So is there a workaround

many thanks

Try this may be it will work.

Code:
<IfModule mod_setenvif.c>

        SetEnvIfNoCase User-Agent ^us-west-2.compute.amazonaws.com bad_bot
        SetEnvIfNoCase User-Agent ^compute.amazonaws.com bad_bot
        SetEnvIfNoCase User-Agent ^amazonaws.com bad_bot
        SetEnvIfNoCase User-Agent ^compute-1.amazonaws.com bad_bot
        SetEnvIfNoCase User-Agent ^us-west-2.compute.amazonaws.com bad_bot
        SetEnvIfNoCase User-Agent ^.us-west-2.compute.amazonaws.com bad_bot

<Limit GET POST PUT>
  Order Allow,Deny
  Allow from all
  Deny from env=bad_bot
</Limit>

</IfModule>
