[lug] Blocking "Missigua Locator" from Hoovering my Server

A couple of days ago my FC2/Apache server was visited by a 'bot that
ignored robots.txt and on every php page it could find it tried to stuff it
with a very long string made up of /software/software/software/...etc.
 
Is there a simple way to deny access to anyone riding on the user agent
'Missigua Locator 1.9'? Is it possible to filter on the user agent?
