I decided some time ago for (timtab_)badbehavior. It closes the whole 
site if a spammer, which is identified by ip, browser-version, http-
request, ...

As some chinese spammer have risen I have enhanced the TYPO3-version of 
badbehavor for my own list of IPs to blacklist. I filter SPAMS from these 
providers by blocking them completly after the first occurence (manual 
learning filter ;-) ) as i have noticed that SPAM comes more often after 
the first successfull submittance (independendly of a missing publishing 
of the postings).
They may contact me by mail to get unblocked as badbehavior shows on the 
'errorpage'.
