<p>Quick Flag resolves IP address to <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_3166-1_alpha-2" rel="nofollow ugc">ISO 3166-1 alpha-2</a> two-letter country code and name using <a href="http://code.google.com/p/ip-countryside/" rel="nofollow ugc">ip-countryside</a> generated database and displays country flag if required. In contrast to other IP to country solutions this one allows you to create and update database your self using 5 Regional Internet Registrars (RIR) databases: AFRINIC, APNIC, ARIN, LACNIC and RIPE and ip-countryside open source application that does the work of generating database for you. You can also update IP to country database automatically with single click or schedule weekly automatic updates.</p>
