Blocking Message Board Posts

Is there any way to block certain persons or organizations from
posting on my web site bulletin board. I have been getting a lot
of posts from someone named niuyue from the remote name
220.191.44.200. These messages seem to be of Chinese origin, and
are in some html format that won't display on my website. I would
like to block this sender if there is any way to do so.

If anyone would like, take a look at the TOC page at this link;

Thanks for any suggestions. Gordon

No.

You could ask your host to block IP address in the server, but if they have
dynamic IPs, they will constantly change.

You would have to use a FTP application to upload, not FP.

You can not add this or any other script to the FP discussion web to block IP addresses.
