[snip] The problem is, the spammer is using multiple IP Address. His IP Address changes every 6 - 8 entries. I have so far recorded 5 different IP Addresses of the spammer. Although I can create a Database and keep adding his IP Address to the database, and run a check from the Guestbook script to scan against Blocked Addresses, It¹s not the most efficient method in the world. What other logic can I apply to automatically block the spammer? Or at least have a more efficient method of blocking the Spammer and his IP¹s?

I'm missing the beginning of this thread so maybe it's be mentioned before but is an image CAPTCHA not an option? (and yes I know the accesibility arguments against using CAPTCHA, and the fact that crap CAPCHTA can be broken by image recognition tools - but my pragmatic feeling is that it's often better than a bucket load of SPAM.)
