Instead of blocking countries, I would only accept US, GB, FR, CA on proxy sites.

Just swap your Allow and Deny statements.

Read .htaccess files for a full description of the syntax.

I find the exlude all, allow some-strategy worth considering but the problem is that this automatically blocks good countries such as Switzerland, countries in the EU, Singapore, not to mention the pirats from down under for example.

I can't see blocking these three nations:

Brazil has a per capita GDP of $10,200.
Hungary has a per capita GDP of $19,800.
Israel has a per capita GDP of $28,300.

These are good target customers.

I agree Will that is why I just block those countries on 40% of my proxies for experimental purposes

but they can be harmful let me explain why.
