Someone keeps on posting wierd links -

I'm having issues with someone who keeps posting this image link but requires you to login before viewing

I've censored .info links, and now, they used tinyurl. Is there something I can do to prevent this thing from popping up login boxes?

Ban his account, IP and if needed his IP range.

^^ Agreed, if it the same user, you may wish to ban him/her but as for preventing those kinds of htaccess pop-ups for images, there isn't much you can do unless you disallow links/images, which really isn't an option for a lot of forums, so if it is the same domain that keep popping them up, you might try censoring to block that domain name from posts. The pop-up is coming from the listed domain for the image.

Ever heard of proxies? The IP is different everytime. And I tried that, but he used tinyurl.

Ever heard of proxies?

Yes, heard. So if the starting digits of IP are unique as well, banning IP/IP range won't be much help.

"But he?" If its just a one man army, simply ban his account. You do have "Unique email addresses" and "Email authentication" switched on right?

He's a human ofcourse, after few bans he'd run out of strength to register again on your site.

Another additional option I would consider is adding the domain used in the URL to the censored words list, that is of course if it's always from the same host.
