Turn your firewall alerts off and then tell us what your game is here

Can you put the IP address on a block list and drop all packets from it?

Just ignore them, safe in the knowledge that your firewall is doing its job. If the scans are to Port 80..137..139 or 445 they are almost certainly coming from a virus infected PC and the owner could be blissfully unaware that he is compromised. I have one Ntl user whose PC scans port 139, 50/60 times a month and it has been going on over four months.
