That's one of the key issues. Many attacks come from dial up
blocks so blocking is only useful if done immediately and then
removed after a short while. Otherwise you could soon end up
with all of your local ISP's addresss space blocked out and
find yourself unable to connect via your own DSL or Cablemodem :-)
