That would be 217.33.74.20, right? I think that would be an excellent
candidate for the "semi-blocks" discussed in another thread. In the
meanwhile, if it's a web proxy (not a firewall or router) and has been
configured to provide X-Forwarded-For headers, it could perhaps be
included in the [[meta:XFF project]]. (Having reverse DNS would help,
though, but at least the whois records look correct.)
