Specific bot
Hello all,
Sorry if this is not the place to post, but I am currently running a new Gaming community and we have had a few bots register. I have since banned a few IP's and mail servers like .ru and .yandex. I have created a robots.txt file as well. Anyway I banned one user that I though was a bot. I have noticed he has been on the site many times and seeing the "Viewing 'No Permission' Message" and the one IP I added to Ban User section in options his IP showed to be the same. I have since deleted his account via admin section and now I am seeing him accessing the site with many variations of this IP info:
107-172-195-39-host.colocrossing.com
107-172-205-106-host.colocrossing.com
107-173-224-144-host.colocrossing.com
Etc. this host.colocrossing.com is showing for guest over 14 times at a time on my whos online.
Anyway I can block all of this? I have many spambot mods from vBulletin.org installed as well as Spam o Matic and still having issues with this bot or bots. Attached is an image of what I am seeing all the time.
Your help would be greatly appreciated.
Forgot to mention I am using VB 4.2.3.
