I blocked thier Ip
as this is all my logs say

Http Code: 200 Date: Oct 16 22:24:52 Http Version: HTTP/1.1 Size in Bytes: 20500
Referer: -
Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 7.0; Windows NT 5.1; .NET CLR 1.1.4322; .NET CLR 2.0.50727)

did i block them correctly

<Limit GET POST PUT>
Order allow,deny
deny from env=blocked
deny from 216.138.71.158
allow from all
</limit>

Jason, IPs can change and still be from the same Host. You'd need to block the Host UA string -> airband.net

SetEnvIfNoCase User-agent "airband.net" bad_pass

Using it without the ^ flag will cause it to match any instance of airband.net located anywhere within the UA string (and that's what you WANT and NEED it to do! :))

[WebSavvy]

OK, you're using the other format and yes, you blocked it correctly.

Here's the code for the blocked UA string (from above)
SetEnvIfNoCase User-agent "airband.net" blocked=yes

Thanks Deb..

all these guys hammer my forum?
not sure why

My guess is that Airband isn't the responsible party.

I'd say they're merely the ISP and don't know what's going on. Report it to them...they may knock the customer off.
