Question for IP-ranges

[Schmarvin]

Does anyone know the Chinese IP range? I want to block them all. I'm not going to get myself in that mess, and I'm tired of banning each IP individually from my system.

Reason behind me wanting to block China users from my site? They cause trouble, spam, illegal content, and force many sites to be taken down because of their actions. Out of the hundreds of Chinese sites I've hosted in the past, all of them have caused trouble.

Hey Schmarvin, try and block the ranges from this website (click the link for China and you'll see a huge amount of ranges to block): http://www.ipdeny.com/ipblocks/

I do agree with you though, unfortunately most of the orders I've had from China appear to be fraud, or they host something that eats CPU/RAM.

Here is a good place to find IP blocks by country. http://www.countryipblocks.net/

Yup, no problem. I find that website invaluable - it's so useful; if I lost it I would be devastated.

Ya I found blocking china makes all the difference. So many fewer chargebacks. Every host should consider it.
