How can i ban this bot
latley on my forum i have been having hundreds of bots from ec2-54-70-216-122.us-west-2.compute.amazonaws.com
When you view whosonline and display user agent this is what it says below ec2-52-89-87-158.us-west-2.compute.amazonaws.com Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/41.0.2228.0 Safari/537.36 here is another one ec2-54-70-213-207.us-west-2.compute.amazonaws.com Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/41.0.2228.0 Safari/537.36 I have tried banning them with my ban spiders plugin and i have also used my ip deny manager to ban numerous ip ranges but they keep coming back in their hundreds. Is there a way to completley ban this bot.This is what i added to my spider list below. us-west-2.compute.amazonaws.com compute.amazonaws.com amazonaws.com compute-1.amazonaws.com us-west-2.compute.amazonaws.com .us-west-2.compute.amazonaws.com Am i doing something wrong.Many thanks for any help on this.

In the ban spiders mod you need to shorten the useragent string to catch more, if you are using my mod then it looks for the entire string that you entered in the list, if you shorten it to say amazonaws it will ban every bot with that in its string.
If you want to ban them via robots.txt you can use this:
