Two suggestions:

- You might like to also put that in your FORWARD chain:
  # iptables -I FORWARD -s 202.145.10.146 -j DROP
- Use -I instead of -A, this will INSERT at the top of the list instead of 
APPENDING to the bottom.

Check the output of `iptables -L -vxn` (which you could paste relevant 
bits of into your email, if necessary) and see if there are any other 
ACCEPT rules in your INPUT chain that would allow packets from that IP 
before your rule that denies them.
