Leo and all, Yes filters will *definately* need masive updating given the massive spam and Phishing from AfriNIC IP's, accordingly. BTW Leo, you need to update you SHA1 hash, it way out of date/been broken over a year ago now. BTW, when is ICANN ever going to get AfriNIC cleaned up? Hopefully in my lifetime perhaps? Or is that wishful thinking on my part? Leo Vegoda wrote:

Hi,

The IANA IPv4 registry has been updated to reflect the allocation of one /8 IPv4 block to AfriNIC in October 2008: 197/8. You can find the IANA IPv4 registry at:

Please update your filters as appropriate.
