Does the site have AOL problems????

I noticed that when I try sometimes to get into the .org, that it says "Sorry, your location is blocked." That's only when I log in using the AOL browser. I immediately switched to Internet Explorer and have no problem. I don't have this problem all the time, but it happens more often than not. What does it mean? shrug

I'm not sure if its this way with broadband on AOL, but for dialup customers on AOL, they assign you a new IP address every time you sign on, so it's possible you got one that was banned from the org.

I didn't know that we could ban IP addresses, only users. I believe Ben, has in the past, blocked certain ranges of IPs though, like with Nep2unes.
