Peter, I'm not concerned about over seas people contacting me. I have no interest of doing business over-seas or receiving email from them. I am concerned about one of my web sites where the product I sell would do them no good, since they are on a different system. If 220. comes from China/Asia..and no IP ranges in the US are 220., I want to block them. This was my question. I've gotten nearly 100 IP blocked and I still get those enlargement emails coming through....I wonder who left the cat out of the bag..
Jeff Dougherty www.intrepid-video.com www.tech-repair.net ----- Original Message ----- From: "Peter Kaulback" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> One large hole in this system is that blocking IP ranges will do more harm than good. Think of all the good sites you may be missing in those ranges that you will never know. I have never comprehended this logic whereby just because a small number cause issues that all must be censored. Which is why I do not put my trust in crude systems like these but rather in more detailed filters. It would be nice also if the IP holders in these area's were concerned more with security and concerns of their customers true identities (many operations in North America have used these hosts for attacks) than the almighty dollar but one must make a living too (I still have not seen a spammer site on a free host :>).
