Can you ban a spammer by blocking his IP address?

This user is using the Answers' forum to advertise his company's maintenance services for a number of brands (Siemens, Smeg, etc.) in arabic - he's located in Cairo, Egypt.

I flagged him a couple of times, but he keeps popping up using new profiles.

Can't you just block his IP address?

Is this a good question?

Reasonable idea, but alas, good spammers almost always use different IPs for each account. This one did.

Thanks for flagging it. We've banned him and we'll keep an eye on things.
