Blocking Iran and China for Proxy Server!!

Finally i made this decision. Its really hard to block a full country from accessing the server, though i was forced to block the traffic from some region located in Iran and China. Our main Proxy server was being abused at high level from these countries and most of my proxy customers were dis-impressed with the performance for last few days. This is the first time i saw my customers informing regarding the degrade in performance, so i was forced to take this hard decision. Although, i do not use cisco hardware firewall to block these traffic or a software firewall. I found the easiet and efficient way to do this is using the maxmind tool to create an artificial intelligence. It shows a page saying an error. I really do not like the stuff to directly drop the full request of a n user. So firewall wasn’t a perfect way to do so. Now my soft works like a charm :)
