    I have a blog build with PHP/Apach/MySQL: http://www.consultingcase101.com.
    just found from log file that a spammer IP 213.5.64.20 attack my blog every 20 mins. I already blocked it from .htaccess file. Is there anyway to complete block this IP so that it won't attack my blog anymore? Any suggestions??

    You can use WP-ban or similar plugin-just search the web for another (you're using wordpress as I saw) .

    Rergards :)
    p.s.: Try re-posting your thread in right section to get more answers quickly.

    WP-Ban will do it. Just block his IP from posting.

    Blocking it with .htaccess should be all the protection you need, unless they change to another ip address.

    This error caused due to home directory permission or .htaccess settings. Please make sure your home directory permission /home/username
