What firewall are you running on your server?

[proxy-server]

It is easy with .htaccess
Just put

order deny,allow
allow from all
deny from 111.111.111.1

111.111.111.1 is in example above ip address that you would like to block (replace it with another ip address)

[Sushant]

Each computer, server or a website in the Internet is assigned an IP address that is usually expressed in the dot-decimal form, for example 123.45.8.15. Blocking an IP address does not permit a network connection to and from a computer with that IP address. This can be accomplished by a firewall on your computer. A firewall is a program that restricts network connections based on certain rules. Windows Vista has a built-in firewall; however, antivirus programs such as popular Norton Internet security software turn off the Windows firewall and use their own.

You can block it at the firewall / router level or .htaccess as well.

[joekate]

that is available in the Admin CP only

[servercolocation]

If you are using Cpanel, then go to the admin area where you find "IP Deny Manager", click on it. Type the IP in the required box, and then click on add button. The IP is banned now.

If you want to remove the IP, simply go to he "IP Deny Manager" and select the IP which you want to remove, then press.. Remove.

You can do it by .htaccess file too which is explained above.
