You can do it in your application.cfm file. I did this on our blog recently
to block blog spammers. Just create a structure that has the blocked IP's
in it (can cache in application scope if it's a big structure) and on each
request check if structKeyExists(badIps, cgi.remote_addr) and if so abort.
Can get fancy and read the list from a text file to make it easy to update.
HTH,
Sam

So, without direct access to the server, there's a way in the
application and robots.txt files that I can block specific IP addresses
or bots from a specific sites?
Point me to a doc on this somewhere please....
Thanks,
