I think the main problem here is that I'm sure x10 has more then one 
server out there, hence you'll need to identify all their ip's in order 
to block all the servers.  I don't think this is going to be an easy task.

i=1
while [ $i -le 254 ]; do
	dig -x 63.211.210.${i}
done

Then of course, they're bound to have other subnets as well.

I didn't have to buy my radio from a specific company to listen
to FM, why doesn't that apply to the Internet (anymore...)?
