Hi in my country I would like to block all users say using Canadian ISP's from viewing a banner or text info on a website? To be more specific I have one page with some banner that I would like world to see. I tried using plx ad manager which has geo target to display banner or not display by country but Canadian IP and USA IP seems same range so page still shows up to Canadian user....but if I deselect USA user as well then it works and banner is not displayed. What I was thinking is best way is to just block Canadian ISP from viewing banner (Rogers, Bell etc) How can I do this? I still want them to view page but just not a banner on that page? Thanks
Your best bet is probably going into the configuration files where the application you tried gets its' information from, and manually setting those ISPs IP ranges to be excluded. Alternatively you could check the Accept-Language HTTP header and treat requests with "en-ca" being the highest weighted as Canada.
You need a script that checks ip of visitor from a csv file, ex of csv file: IP FROM IP TO REGISTRY ASSIGNED CTRY CNTRY COUNTRY # "1346797568","1346801663","ripencc","20010601","IL","ISR","ISRAEL" # # IP FROM : Numerical representation of IP address. # Example: (from Right to Left) # 1.2.3.4 = 4 + (3 * 256) + (2 * 256 * 256) + (1 * 256 * 256 * 256) # is 4 + 768 + 13,1072 + 16,777,216 = 16,909,060 # # REGISTRY : apcnic, arin, lacnic, ripencc and afrinic # Also included as of April 22, 2005 are the IANA IETF Reserved # address numbers. These are important since any source claiming # to be from one of these IPs must be spoofed. # # ASSIGNED : The date this IP or block was assigned. (In Epoch seconds) # NOTE: Where the allocation or assignment has been transferred from # one registry to another, the date represents the date of first # assignment or allocation as received in from the original RIR. # It is noted that where records do not show a date of first # assignment, the date is given as "0". # # CTRY : 2 character international country code # NOTE: ISO 3166 2-letter code of the organisation to which the # allocation or assignment was made, and the enumerated variances of: # AP - non-specific Asia-Pacific location # CS - Serbia and Montenegro (Formally Czechoslovakia) # YU - Serbia and Montenegro (Formally Yugoslavia) (Being phased out) # EU - non-specific European Union location # FX - France, Metropolitan # PS - Palestinian Territory, Occupied # UK - United Kingdom (standard says GB) # * ZZ - IETF RESERVED address space. # # These values are not defined in ISO 3166 but are widely used. # * IANA Reserved Address space # # CNTRY : Country Abbreviation.

See: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Serbia and # http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Montenegro. # # We have updated the database to include "RS" and "ME" for these # two contries but currently the registries still provide the OLD # country code data. Thus you may need to translate the codes # "YU" and "CS" -> "ME" and the same for "ME". # # For the most part it appears that translating CS -> RS and # YU -> ME works but it is probably not entirely accurate. # # Nov 2006 - Added country code for ÅLAND ISLANDS - AX - ALA # ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ # THIS DATABSE IS PROVIDED WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY WHATSOEVER.
