Default banned player still connecting/sending msgs

Hi,
Recently a player was banned for language and is now connection flooding the server, making it lag badly. In the spawn area, you can see the player respawning in up to 3 places at once once every second or two, over and over. You can see the players name when he appears for the brief time, and then disappears. In the nexgen admin console, no name appears, so it's not possible to select anything to ban (again).
The player is also somehow sending messages to the server, basically flooding the server with messages that appear to be scripted... he can't see the ingame chat I don't think, he can only send messages and not have a 2 way conversation probably.

Has anyone experienced this before?
I have his IP and contacted his ISP about it, but i doubt they'll do anything. Worth a shot though as security is the trend recently, and if you put an emphasis on that then they could be willing to investigate.
Thanks,
bone

The reason he is able to join is because its takes a few seconds for Nexgen to retrieve his Client ID. To prevent him to even join the server, I recommend IP-Range banning him via the standard UT IPPolicies.

Default thanks spongebob

How are you anyway? Haven't seen you in a while.
THis on HoF MH server.

He isn't connecting regularly.. he's using some program to connect 3 times every second. He's also sending messages into the game from outside the game.

How is he doing that?

If you can't solve this or it's still an issue let me know and I'll show you how to drop the hammer.

I had the same problem, and the only solution for me was to block his IP in the firewall on the machine.
