<DIV>The Register Country module does pretty much the same thing and has been around for quite a while. It restricts users from registering for the site by their IP addresses so that only certain people in certain countries can register. It is only to limit people (by marketing area) not to ban specific countries.<BR> </DIV>

<DIV>Perhaps the use of the word "ban" in the module name gits me in the gut.</DIV></DIV></DIV></div></body></html>
