It actually does not seem to be a floating IP, neither a political thing. He
simply drops in meaningless chars instead of the original page, or redirects
the page to the english edition (which does not work), his style seems to be
pretty stable.  So you are likely to be right. It's a unique IP. Let's block
it.

Yeap! I've asked for it some 10 days ago :) Still waiting for an answer :) I
hoped that maybe there could be someone with that access here, and that they
could terminate the guy for us, while we wait for operative indipendence :)
