I'm trialling a new LTE/4G service for home in place of the fixed ADSL landline. The carrier is "Three", although I'm actually subscribing via an MVNO. When I try to login to Quatloos I get basically told to take a hike ..
On the face of it this seems to be saying that my public IP address is on a blacklist managed by these "stopforumspam.com" guys. However if I click on the removal request link, it says my IP is not on their list (actual IP redacted on this public post, but it is the same as quoted in the blocking message) ..403 FORBIDDEN!
Either the address you are accessing this site from has been banned for previous malicious behavior or the action you attempted is considered to be hostile to the proper functioning of this system.
The detected reason(s) you were blocked are:
No registrations, or logins, from hosts listed as hostile on Stop Forum Spam (http://www.stopforumspam.com/removal) (local block).
Your IP, Domain Name (if resolvable), the referring page (if any), QUERY, POST, User Agent, time of access, and date have been logged and flagged for admin review. Please either 1. Stop the bad behavior, or 2. Cease accessing this system.
Any ideas? If the problem isn't the IP address itself, presumably my action in trying to log in is being seen as hostile?Rrr
