I think I remember there such a tool in the snort web site. Look
for it in www.snort.org, but have in mind that this kind of
tools are prone to DOS attacks, because someone can send you
spoofed traffic and you will be blocking IP addresses you don't
want to.

The only people for me are the mad ones -- the ones who are mad to live,
mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time,
the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn
like fabulous yellow Roman candles.
