Got their IP's blocked with with IIS [Internet Information Services Manger], just tired of seeing the main reports of people accessing my server are hackers. Other than buying a Sonic Wall device got any ideas what to try instead of spending $400 bucks for a hardware solution?

That's normal. Not a big deal. You will never stop it.
Of course, you can always limit what IP ranges people can see your server from, but this will only stop 50% of the China guys. They will just bounce off some local machine to get to you.
The point being is, quit worrying about it.

PS. And make sure you always patch!
