A client is desperate to restrict certain areas of their site according to the 
user's country. I won't go into the reasons here.

I've explained that this is not an exact science, since many users' ISPs will 
use IP address ranges that will give inaccurate results (Prime example is AOL, 
which will bring up everything as Virginia, US. I've suggested a mixture of IP 
zoning and an option for users to choose "I don't live here" and set the 
country of origin themselves, but it would seem that this is not good enough.

So my question is, what's the most accurate resource out there for getting 
country by IP? Does anyone have experience with this sort of thing, and if so, 
is it possible to get 100% accuracy? Are there any other options?

Cheers
Taz
