Blocking spiders from website

Hi
I have a guestbook on a friend's site...I am currently hosting the site for him but we are going to re design the site...
anyhow - we are currently getting about 200 guestbook entries a day from this address (according to my web stats) http://umax-se.com/like.cgi?query=ht...est.php?do=add (btw if you click on it, it adds more S**t to the old guestbook)

It keeps adding random entries to this guestbook....now in the past I've used
Code:
order allow,deny
deny from persons.ip.address
allow from all
in the past but I don't know if this will work for banning specific target URL's..

any one have any ideas whether this will work or not?

the easiest sollution is to change your guestbookcode and include a dynalically generated securityimage they need to type over before submitting a comment.
