Banning IP addresses safely (not banning real users)?

Well, just googling for an IP leads you to places where they list that IP as a spammer, pretty good chance its pretty dedicated to spam.

A service that takes IP into account along with other measures to block spam is of course better. Drupal's built-in IP blocking was an interim solution while Mollom, Webform, Webform Block, and Salesforce Webform were not quite ready to upgrade and all be happy in glorious functional spam-blocking harmony.
