I also installed vB Bad Behavior: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=261498

EDIT: I found this info about it:

Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; MJ12bot/v1.4.2; http://www.majestic12.co.uk/bot.php?+)

I now use only this string in spider list settings: MJ12bot.

I hope it will stop it, maybe Majestics MJ12bot was too much

On separate lines.

But I am curious - why do you want to ban this bot? It's one of the better behaved ones out there and it doesn't flood. It obeys robots.txt as well.

How can I block MJ12bot?

MJ12bot adheres to the robots.txt standard. If you want the bot to prevent website from being crawled then add the following text to your robots.txt:

User-agent: MJ12bot
Disallow: /
