Windows Firewall Blocking Bleeding Cool

[Mad_Man_Moon]

Congratulations, you just made Microsoft's shit list!

I just had to go in to the Windows Firewall and add your IP address to enable me to get in here.

This wasn't happening a few days ago, and isn't happening on my XP machine, but my Vista Ultimate took it upon itself to block your current IP (72.172.88.151 for anyone that's curious).

Just thought I should let you know


EDIT:
I'd disabled AVG, peerblock and even tried another browser to ensure that it wasn't noscript.
Still nothing, but the other PC was fine.

I considered my (extensive) hosts list ... but I can switch (via batch) to safe and non-safe ... and it didn't work on 'non-safe' ... (nothing).

EDIT2:
OK, that's weird, now I've disabled it, it works fine ... did you have a server blip?

Okay, that's weird because I'm on XP and I can't see anything.

I can now get on the website but when I click on the individual stories I don't see any of the content. This happens in both IE and Chrome on Windows 7 PC.
