Could try to use one of the free GEO IP Databases?

Actually I know how to block the IPs, I just am having trouble finding the ranges. I need to block IPs from Ontario, can anyone tell me how to find the IP ranges to block?

You could use an ip blocker

But seriously, I would be interested in your solution...

Hi Praha,
Yes! Please share your solution! I'm trying to do this as well. Thanks.

ok.

these guys have a nice free script that blocks countries:
ip2country.net/ip2country/
took a bit to get the hang of it, but it works.

I wanted to block more specifically than that so I bought their ip2region database.. and then found out it wouldnt work with the country blocking script.
which seems very silly to me.. and these guys could have a nice product if they updated the script a little... however I emailed them and explained what I wanted to use the region db with the country blocking script and they sent me some replacement PHP code to make it work! good customer service.

What do you have against Ontario other than the fact that they're Canadians?
