You can block this visitor via a .htaccess file. For example, to block a specific IP address while allowing all other IP addresses:

# allow all except those indicated here
<Files *>
order allow,deny
allow from all
deny from xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
</Files>

Where xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx is the offending IP address.
Hope this helps.
