Hi,

 

you can create a new firewall rule to block an IP range this way:

1. Open Norton Internet Security
2. Click on Settings
3. Go to the Network tab
4. Under Smart Firewall, click Configure next to Advanced Settings
5. On the new window click on Configure [+] by Genereal Settings
6. Click on Add
7. In the Add Rule wizard, select Block, and then click Next
8. Select the type of connection that the rule should monitor, and then click Next
9. Select "Only the computers and sites listed below" option

10. Click Add, and here you can configure an IP range (like 100.000.000 to 199.999.999), click OK, and then click Next
11. Select the ports and protocols the rule should monitor.
12. If you want the logs for this rule to be saved, check Create an event log entry, and then click Next.
13. In the "What do you want to call this rule?" box, type a name for the rule, and then click Next
14. Review the new rule settings, and if they are correct, click Finish
15. Click Move Up to move the rule to top, and make it a higher priority
16. Click OK / Apply and close Settings.

 

 

EDIT: It is possible, that you may need to add several IP ranges to block whole countries' IP addresses.

 

Let us know the results.
