Does anyone know of a way to block a specific IP or dns name from accessing the web site?
You can do it via your Site Manager. Log in and go to Site Management and you'll see the link on the left for IP Filtering.
Wish I could do that but I'm on a dedicated server so I'm stuck using the old Westhost 1.0. I assume you are referring to 2.0 because I have no such option in webcontrol. I did find a way to do it via .htaccess in the site root though and that seems to work ok.
<Limit GET>
order allow,deny
deny from 123.456.789.012
</Limit>
