Block Top Spammers displays a list of spammers' IP addresses and generates a blacklist for your .htaccess file

Block Top Spammers displays a list of your top spammers’ IP addresses, based on all comments in your database that are marked as spam. It also generates a blacklist for your .htaccess file to block those spammers from your website entirely, thus taking load off the server. – You will need another plugin (like Akismet) to identify the spam.

PHP 5 and Apache required.
