Hiding a particular username from your Friend Of list:
If you are uncomfortable with a certain username displaying on your Friend Of list, it is possible to hide that particular name by banning that user (http://www.livejournal.com/support/faqbrowse.bml?faqid=20) from leaving comments in your journal. This will automatically hide their username from your Friend Of list on your User Info page or in a downloadable client, even when logged in as yourself; however, your username will still appear in the Friends list on their User Info page. You can see a list of banned users on the bottom of the Comment Settings page.
If you want to ban a specific LiveJournal user without having to delete one of their comments, you can ban them using the Admin Console (http://www.livejournal.com/admin/console/). First, make sure you are already logged in, then go to the console and enter this command:
