Netblocks were never assigned to countries. Internet is private, IPs get assigned to companies. What can happen is that somewhere along the chain there is a national internet registry (for instance Korea kas one), but usually it is a regional one (Europe, Latin America, Asia Pacific etc.) which gets large chunks, splits them up and hands them out. The best was to see this is using a lookingglass for AS numbers. AS numbers are the numbers ISPs use to identify the IP ranges in internet routing tables: http://www.fixedorbit.com/search.htm Jochem ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Find out how CFTicket can increase your company's customer support efficiency by 100% http://www.houseoffusion.com/banners/view.cfm?bannerid=49 Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:5:157406 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/5 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:5 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.5 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54
