... and me. And wanadoo.fr is IMHO the biggest ISP in France, France
Telecom I think...

Then I would suggest you contact them and demand they do something about 
their security. Most of my site traffic comes from the US, but most of the 
hacking attempts come from Germany, France and China. While I have had some 
problems for US ISPs, they are usually responsive and the problem is 
resolved. It is not the same with t-dialin.net or wanadoo.fr. So if blocking 
access to the entire country is what it takes to reduce the potential 
threat, then I am afraid that is what must be done.
