Just to pick a nit, class A, B, and C address are all valid, however,
you are probably thinking of the reserved ranges within those classes.

Class A IP Addresses run from 0.0.0.0-127.255.255.255
Class B IP Addresses run from 128.0.0.0-191.255.255.255
and Class C IP Addresses run from 192.0.0.0-223.255.255.255

There are also Class D & E addresses, and they make up the rest of the
range (224-255).

The reserved ranges are:

10.x.x.x (Class A addresses)
172.16.x.x (Class B addresses)
192.168.x.x (Class C addresses)

But that doesn't mean my IP (24.5.73.229) isn't Class A, or that it
isn't valid.

Sorry, if you actually meant that, but I bet there is at least someone
else who didn't know about it on the list.
