Web Blocking
Can someone explain the message I get when logging onto
Gardenweb.com and how to go about fixing it ?
It appears to say that NTL is an irresponsible ISP
Both Gardenweb and NTL tell me it is the others Fault !?!

Re: Web Blocking
Are you connecting via a different port? such as https://website:2086 or something? - If so, are you using a manual proxy in your browser config, if so try removing the manual proxy setting.

Re: Web Blocking
Very strange message  - is this a joke?
Are you are connecting to the right site? Checked for spyware?

Re: Web Blocking
I get the same message when using favourites, Address Panel or via Google.
I can get on at work but that is with a different provider

Re: Web Blocking
I have just received the following message from the webmaster at Gardenweb.com
"We came under a denial of service attack via cache4-bagu.server.ntli.net and
cache3-bagu.server.ntli.net."
"They (NTL) need to offer an explanation and show to us what they have done to prevent
a recurrance."
Does anyone out there know what this means and what action I should take now?
I'm a novice in this area

I would say that you need to forward the mail to abuse@ntlworld.com for investigation....
Seems a bit fishy now I think of it !! A DOS attack coming from a proxy !!!

Re: Web Blocking
This isn`t the first instance of web site's blocking access via NTL proxies that I have come across. I've experienced periods when both the IMDB and Slashdot have blocked access via NTL proxies. I guess the problem with the proxies that a lot of legitimate traffic originating from them could appear to be a single user making excessive requests to a single site, hence the blockage.
With the IMDB issue, I e-mailed their support pointing out that they had actually blocked a proxy and they soon unblocked it. Does this site know that they have blocked a proxy, or are they assuming they have blocked an individual customer?

A DOS attack from a cache server - that is very unlikely - I would ask them to explain but it's probably a waste of time.
Just manually specify another proxy when you want ot connect to the site.
