I get swamped with spammers everyday from the IP block of 120.28.0.0

I have tried to block this whole block as described at the bottom of the block IP page but only the individual IP's I have blocked are restricted, and new ones still come through. Does anyone know what I might be doing wrong?
Are you blocking 128.28.*.* ??
Create a .htaccess file in your forum folder and add the following lines
order allow,deny
deny from 120.28
allow from all

No..but I just did. I was doing it like the example: (Ex: 127.0.0.*)
This topic might help you. I have India and the Philippines blocked now. Iran is next.
