Not a bad idea.

I used the block list you provided. It has:

hank billings:96.36.1.1-96.36.255.255
hong kong:123.0.0.0-123.255.255.255
dragon networks:209.124.1.0-209.255.255.255
china mobile:120.192.0.0-120.255.255.255
attacker:176.0.0.0-176.255.255.255
taiwan:125.227.0.0-125.227.255.255
attacker:187.147.0.0-187.147.255.255
banjkok:61.19.0.0-61.255.255.255

It blocks a few, but most attacks still seem to get through.
