What are you using for a firewall? Do you have many of these cases? Just
blocking ports 80, 8080 and such by individual address will work if the
users have a single computer should do. If you use DHCP you can still
reserve a single address for that individual in your DHCP server and do the
same. This gets laborious if there are many users to block though. If you
have many subnets, you could reserve blocks of addresses (reserved in your
DHCP server and assign to those that are to be blocked and then block them
all at the firewall for http like ports (80, 81, 8080).
