Rapidshare blocks Indian ISP
Yesterday when i visited Rapidshare to download some ebooks i was greeteed by this message �Massive RapidShare hack attempts detected. IP block 59.90.0.0 - 59.99.255.255 blocked. Please call your internet provider.�
Then I came to know through many forums that many ips of india and middle east banned as a result of hacking attempts.
Rapidshare has banned ip addresses of the entire range. This means that the whole isp which has got this ip range is banned.
here are some of Blocked IP ranges:
IP block 59.90.0.0 - 59.99.255.255 blocked.
IP block 41.232.0.0 - 41.235.255.255 blocked.
IP block 59.170.0.0 - 59.189.255.255 blocked.
It is the second time it seems that rapidshare server was targeted in this week from ip ranges leased by BSNL and MTNL india resulting in the banning.
After contacting rapidshare support i got a reply from their side.
