I know that I am able to access the site with no trouble from many different areas, using many different wi-fi devices. I'll keep looking around, though, and see if I can see any evidence that we're blocked.

(Although I'm at home mostly so that isn't a problem) I think they were saying they they've banned anything like Myspace or whatnot due to bandwidth usage...[/color]

Stop That Block's solid gold till it inevitably gets added to the proxy list. Chat's moot, though.

If anyone has any information about where we're blocked (the name of the software package that lists us as blocked), please let me know. I'll contact the administrators of the software package and see if I can figure out what's going on.
