There's this one guest who's sucking up a lot of bandwidth (relatively) and I want him off. Looks like I'll have to wait for vB 3. ;)

I believe you can do this with .htaccess

And for those losers (I'm not one :D) using IIS?

IIS doesn't have .htaccess or an equivalent? I didn't know that!

IIS does not suck :) It can do everything Apache can do and more.

There is an option within IIS to restrict IP addresses..I can't get to my server from here but I'll find it later today and then come back to you.
