I have been attacked for weeks by the same spambot trying to brute force the login page. I have a login security module now installed on my Drupal 6 website and it bans on IP after x amount of attempts. It's been going on for ever and I have banned about 1000 IP addresses.

Is there any point in me banning on IP due to the spambot having access to unlimited IP addresses or will they run out of them eventually?
