Always ask them a question in return.

Wow, that can be annoying.
I woulld say, and have said before in the past, that whenever this person asks a question they are breaking your train of thought and hindering your progress towards whatever it was that you were working on. I usuallly try to say it in a way that makes them feel a part of whatever it is I am working on so they do not want to interupt.
I also would say that, "I trust you to figure out the answer because I believe you are smart enough" or "I trust you to handle the problem on your own without asking me questions, I know you have knowledge enough to figure it out."

It would depend on the question being asked and who's asking it. If it's somone who has a genuine question, answer it. If it's someone whose just acting stupid, tell them to go take a flying leap!!!!

I usually divert their attention with a good tv show like "Sesame Street". Works for about an hour.

if the questions are worth to be answered, then go ahead, it doesn't hurt to share what you know.

Limit them, and the pain will only last so long.
