That looks like the whois information. That's not a reliable way to find out what country an IP address belongs to. You should use geoiplookup.
DP> So the total number is: 22+3=25.
23+3=26. Still a lot more then the 12 that are in the nodelist!?
Can you list the nodes your software finds located in the Netherlands?
Bye, Wilfred.
