Oh Tony - that's a bit scary!
Hopefully someone will come along soon and answer your question - I haven't got a clue.

One 'bad' instance of that IP address has been reported on http://www.stopforumspam.com/search .
One suggestion for you to is to lose that IP address and get another. I assume that you don't pay to have a fixed IP address. If you don't have a fixed IP address, you should be able to switch off your modem / router (for a minute or two?) and switch it back on again. It should lose the current IP address during the switched off time. Then when you power it up again it should seek an IP address from your provider, normally a random one from the heap of unused addresses at that time. In all probability it should not be the same address as you currently have.

If you want to check your ip address, the easiest way is to type into google "what is my ip address"

I had the same problem recently on the other forum, it sorted itself out after a day or so.
