    Few days ago some very awful and disgusting guy started posting under my blog. He is posting vulgarisms and is threating to me. I don’t know how to ban his IP to prevent him from entering the blog once again.

    Is he a User or is he just somebody who left a comment? If he’s a user, just delete him via your admin panel.

    Do not ban his IP: that will probably ban all sorts of innocent people as well. Go to Options–>Discussion and scroll down; you’ll find a “Blacklist” box where you can put his commenter name. Then he won’t be able to comment.

    I put the IP address in the moderation area. That way, I can see the post before it hits my blog. Putting the name into the blacklist box hasn’t worked for me – they just change their names.
