What the shit? The nyspeed URL been blocked at work under category virus infected sites…gay. I’ve been having to use the IP backdoor, but a lot of the functionality isn’t there. Talked to another member that works for the company, same problem. ---

no other message boards and forums are blocked…and that’s not the normal access denied message. For productivity type stuff I get this one. Doesn’t say anything about a virus. Only thing I could think of was maybe for the people who go on, clicking New Posts every 5 seconds looks like virus-related activity? ---

probably just a error from the admin… they can see all your traffic… so it isn’t difficult for them to just block the domain. ---

probably an IP issue - maybe one of the other sites on the server NYspeed is hosted on has been blacklisted… ---
