I'm reviewing my stats for June and I came across this entry:

Host: support02.linksmanager.[blah]
Pages: 3973
Hits: 3973
Bandwidth: 60.44 MB

I am not part of any link exchange or have any use for "managers". I searched this host in Google but didn't find anything but people's usage statistics.

I am not entirely sure if the "host" above is the user agent I could block.. but if it isn't, how could I go about filtering them from accessing my website?

You could block them from your site with .htaccess [google.com] if you're on an Apache server.
