Seems like your IP address is being blocked by the website.


Most cable/phone companies routinely change IP addresses of the subscribers so you can wait a few days and it will fix itself. You can get your Ip address by going to this website http://whatismyip.com/.


You can also go to Starbucks or a friends place to do this.





But most websites want users to use their websites so if they blocked you that just means you are a bad guy.
Reply:Your computer is likely blocked...they do this by blocking your IP address, and the only way around it is to use a proxy server to access it...





Be careful with this though...the sites I run that need IP bans also ban proxy servers...and I've seen some sites that not only ban proxies and your ip, but send you off to other sites...the kind of sites you wouldn't want your mom to catch you looking at.
Reply:Your IP address maybe? Cookies? Any of a number of a dozen ways.





You would fix it by contacting the site and seeing why they're blocking you.
