Please note that this Method is no longer available.
That was really the only reason I purchased KVS subscription. Makes that last month of the subscription a little worthless.
I have 4.5mo on my subscription left which are now rendered worthless.

Do you blame Microsoft or Mozilla when Internet Explorer or Firefox cannot successfully connect to a web page that the owner has removed, even though your software works as designed?
If I recall, when you sent an HTTP request, you can manually specify any browser type. I had thought that KVS looks like IE. And you are using the browser from your own computer accessing the same pages that we manually do. So I don't think UA can specifically block KVS technically. Maybe by sending a threatening letter to them telling them to remove the feature.
