Glad it worked.

Of course, if they change hosts, their IP will change and you'll have to update it in your .htaccess.

You can actually create a list of IPs to deny by simply adding each in this manner:

Code:

deny from XX.XX.XX.XX

So if you were denying five different IPs, that area of your .htaccess might look like this:

Code:

order allow,deny
deny from 89.18.179.48
deny from 12.34.56.78
deny from 22.34.56.78
deny from 32.34.56.78
deny from 42.34.56.78
allow from all

From my minimal understanding, it's really not a good thing to have to big of list rules within your .htaccess because it's forcing your server to cross-check the referring IP of every incoming whatever. You shouldn't experience any sort of issue with just a few though. (I have several IPs banned for multiple long-forgotten reasons.)
