IP's & Bots BLOCKED from LimestoneFormation

The Webmaster includes this information to assist other Webmasters in ensuring their resource can operate efficiently, without bots wasting bandwidth with pointless requests, and abuse of the server's (potentially limited) bandwidth.

The IP's below have been identified conducting malicious behavior on THIS resource and either directly identify as bots or hide their true identity - but are documented on other sites (Like Project Honeypot) as generators of spam and mass requests.

The below may be directly "copied and pasted" into your Apache ".htaccess" file (Where used/fitted)

Some other things you might want to include, which block "bad bots," although you must personally research these and whether or not you wish to block them!
