The problem is, the spammer is using multiple IP Address. His IP Address
changes every 6 - 8 entries. I have so far recorded 5 different IP Addresses
of the spammer. Although I can create a Database and keep adding his IP
Address to the database, and run a check from the Guestbook script to scan
against Blocked Addresses, It¹s not the most efficient method in the world.
What other logic can I apply to automatically block the spammer? Or at least
have a more efficient method of blocking the Spammer and his IP¹s?

You could always block a range of IP addresses, but you may cut out a
legitimate user.
I'm missing the beginning of this thread so maybe it's be mentioned before but
is an image
CAPTCHA not an option? (and yes I know the accesibility arguments against using
CAPTCHA,
and the fact that crap CAPCHTA can be broken by image recognition tools - but
my pragmatic
feeling is that it's often better than a bucket load of SPAM.)
