Title: Banned on home network
Post by: BlasterNT on November 26, 2011, 09:31:41 am
Hi guys, it looks like my home computer got blacklisted on HLP.  I think it's cause I was using tor to browse it at school, and forgot to turn it off when I got home, so I got some spammy ip associated with me.  Anyways, I was able to get around the block by deleting all HLP cookies, and am able to browse HLP again, but when I try to use irc, it says  Closing Link: spftor2.privacyfoundation.de (*** Banned (DNS blacklist)).  Could I get off that blacklist?  Thanks!

Offtopic:  This was the question I had in mind for irc--how does the density setting correlate with real life?  Should I increment it in steps of 1, for something like a light fighter made of some new-fangled ultralight material vs. a heavy bomber with lots of molybdenum armor?

Please ask offtopic questions where they aren't offtopic. There is no limit on the number of threads you can make.

As for your IRC issue, you need to contact Esper.net (assuming you wanted to use the hlp chat room) and ask them for support. Also, how about not using tor?

Will do.  Tor usually works fine, I just use it cause the school network blocks HLP.
