Please need help now

Okay at the risk of sounding like a moron I am having some problems trying to replace a blown strut..

Okay I have the strut off of the car and am trying to remove the top nut but the friggin thing spins the WHOLE SHAFT..

I can't figure out how to get the nut off to take apart the strut with the whole shaft turning..

HELP!!!
