You can block requests to the particular address on the router, however it will not stop client from sending it.
The good idea would be to visit client or recommend to clean its PC from viruses (bad applications).

Do I block input chain?

http://wiki.mikrotik.com/wiki/Manual:IP ... ter#Chains
There are three predefined chains, which cannot be deleted:

input - used to process packets entering the router through one of the interfaces with the destination IP address which is one of the router's addresses. Packets passing through the router are not processed against the rules of the input chain
forward - used to process packets passing through the router
output - used to process packets originated from the router and leaving it through one of the interfaces. Packets passing through the router are not processed against the rules of the output chain
