Hit Confirm and it the system will do the rest -- delete all posts, ban the user, ip, and add the user information to the global spammer database.

May I point out the case that some providers do give dynamic IP adresses and if you ban these it may happen that a legal user and non spammer has a problem if he gets that IP.
Will be a rare case but just to point at that.

I do not remember if you use captchas ( but I guess you do) and I wonder if those captchas somehow do not work.
If this is the case the following may also be interesting :
"Legal concerns

The circumvention of CAPTCHAs may violate the anti-circumvention clause of the
Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) in the United States. In 2007,
Ticketmaster sued software maker RMG Technologies[26] for its product which
circumvented the ticket seller's CAPTCHAs on the basis that it violated the
anti-circumvention clause of the DMCA. In October 2007, an injunction was
issued stating that Ticketmaster would likely succeed in making its case.[27]
In June 2008, Ticketmaster filed for default judgment against RMG. The Court
granted Ticketmaster the default and entered an $18.2M judgment in favor of Ticketmaster."
[ http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CAPTCHA ]

I never thought that I might find a pro case for the DMCA...
