Hi someone is currently sending requests to our server 20x a second.

Here is what one of the logs look like.

[/CODE]

We are currently blocking this user through our Apache.

.htaccess
[CODE]
RewriteEngine On 
RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} ^Mozilla/5\.0\ \(Macintosh;\ (.+)\ PPC\ Mac\
OS\ X;\ en-US\)\ AppleWebKit/(.+)\ \(KHTML,\ like\ Geco,\ Safari\)\
OmniWeb/v([0-9]+).([0-9]+)(.+)$
RewriteRule .* - [F]
[/CODE]

That works fine and is giving the user a 403 (Forbidden), but the problem is
that half of our Apache processes are from this user.

Is there a way to block his user agent before he gets to Apache? Sometimes
this brings our server to a crash.

Thanks
Andrew
