BHW is blocked by openDNS

Got this message today. had to change my dns to google.

Hmm Strange .....Tags Related to this site Seems to be ok

mine is working with opendns . I remember few months back , this happened to me too..... Had to turn off for a few days . Then it automatically started working again

open dns will only block if your network administrator has a account and blocking the categories

My isp has banned BHW because of the side banner's they think it is a porn website/forum :S

If my ISP ever blocks BHW I will dump them the next day. Competition is waiting at my door.

BHW is blocked by O2 in the UK(big Cellphone provider)

I mean you can get most websites over 3G in the UK unless they are actually considered dangerous so someone in BHW should be doing their best to whitelist the site with all providers.

Thanks all for pointing these out.

We work with providers all the time that see "blackhat" and freak out without reading the content.

Contact your providers and request they allow BHW through whenever you can. More people need to have access to all areas of the web, it shouldn't be restricted by faceless corporations.

Copy and paste the following to the support contact on your account where you can.

Hi Support

I've been trying to get on my favorite site BlackHatWorld.com but unfortunately you appear to be blocking it. Can you explain why? I've been a long term user and big fan. There are no wares or illegal activities on the site and it's professionally moderated with reporting functions. I simply want access to the whole web - not the web that you decide is acceptable to me, I'm an adult and wish to be treated as such.

Google's own lists it as currently safe

Yours sincerely
