Network/ISP blockage of FT?
Randy --
I am curious as my network suddenly refused to stop connecting to FT about 10 days ago. I even tried to send a query to your e-mail but it was bounced back for lack of a correct routing/path. It looks like either my network has blocked FT, or it's a gateway/upstream issue.
Has this happened before with other servers? Have other network admins decided to block FT? I'd much rather my employees look at FT than at some random porn site or Lord knows what else.
Just wondering.
Thanks!

Just so I don't get the obvious question, visit and post to FT using a web anonymizer/re-director service now, in order to avoid the blockage.
