it's sounds like what you have is a problem that is more non-technical
than technical.  i think a non-technical solution to this problem
is what might be most effective.

trying to ignore traffic from a particular mac address might work
temporarily until the person gets a new network card or figures out
how to change the mac address a network stack uses (haven't seen this
done under win, but it's certainly possible under various un*x
systems...)
