asterisk users - Feb 2011 - IP ban list by country

Hi everyone,

I know it's off topic from Asterisk directly but yet related.

What sources do you use to limit SIP connecting customers to specific
countries by IP (e.g. allowing USA and not China). It would help me a lot of
you can note the sources you trust that are complete and up to date.

Thanks

I compiled this list a few (6?) months ago by typing class A address 
blocks into Arin.net's 'whois' web page and noting which Regional
Internet
Registry it was allocated to.

After plonking this into a couple of production hosts, attacks of all 
ports dropped dramatically.

I note there have been changes since then (128.0.0.0 was assigned to RIPE 
back in November), so if anybody wants to 'refresh' and post changes, 
please do.

Thanks in advance,
