How to BAN an IP address from accessing ones Website

[haughmill]

Hello
I hope someone can help please.
I have been having malicious entries made into my guestbook, which I do delete but it takes time and means I have to continually 'watch' for these spurious comments.
I know that one can 'BAN' IP addresses from viewing the site but I do not know how to.
I have the IP address of the person responsible but now I need to 'lock' this address from access.
Can someone tell me how to do this please.
Thank you
Carolyne

It is called the IP Deny Manager.

Just enter the IP address or the name.com without the www.

Thank you very much. That was most helpful.

Managed to find the icon in the control panel and enter the IP address. Whoo Hoo!

It's easy when you know how eh?

Thanks again.
