It appears to be the nicknameExploit in action.

Readme.txt file from nicknameExploitFix.zip
Following exploits are fixed:
- Use of zero length nicknames
- Use of nicknames that match the hostnames
- Use of characters below " " and above "~"
- Use of nicknames that are already used in the game
- Use of nicknames that consist of spaces only
- Use of very long nicknames
People using above exploits will be blocked from connecting to your server.

But what it is stating, 'Player with invalid nickname blocked'
Not sure if you get the same response if there was no available ports for a player to join.
I don't think you would get any message in that case.
Not positive.

That message I belieave is actually from BHS.dll - This means the player was blocked when he was attempting to join the game because he had an invaild nickname.

Let all your wishes be granted except one, so you will still have something to strieve for.
