Hello Trent,
Here is some more info as suggested.As you will probably see I
have made a mess of things with various other commands.
I want to be able to completely block the mentioned ip address
from connecting to my computer and also if sensible,block ports
from 1000-65535.
peter@peter-G31M-ES2L ~ $ sudo ufw status verbose
Status: active
Logging: on (low)
Default: deny (incoming), allow (outgoing), disabled (routed)
New profiles: skip

Hi Peter,

According to tcptrack the ip is still getting a connection.
sudo ufw enable
You can also run some diagnostic commands:
sudo ufw status
sudo ufw status verbose
sudo ufw show user-rules
These commands come from the system documentation ("man ufw"),
also available here:
https://manpages.debian.org/stretch/ufw/ufw.8.en.html
http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/xenial/en/man8/ufw.8.html
Another obvious thing to check is if to and from are backwards.
Try both:
sudo ufw deny from A.B.C.D
sudo ufw deny to A.B.C.D
Under the hood, ufw is a wrapper around iptables/netfilter
("iptables" is the userspace part, "netfilter" is the kernel part).
I can read the raw iptables rules better than ufw rules.
If you attach them, I can take a look for you.
This will print out the IPv6 rules in a format I can understand:
sudo iptables-save -c
