Blocked from specific sites

very weird. While connected to a site I frequent (moderate) I clicked submit (for a message/post) and received and coannot connect to server error in safari. Every other site associated with this URL is also inaccessible. BUT - ONLY these 4 sites are not accessible.
Thinking it might be related to Safari, I tried Opera, Mozilla and Explorer. Same issue in all browsers. I can access every site normally but not the 4 particular sites.
My ISP (WildBlue) says it is NOT them. All network preferences have been checked and confirmed as appropriate (and internet access IS working except for the formentioned URL's) The site owner says he is NOT blocking me. The sites ISP insists that the problem is not them or a DNS server issue. They all say that my Mac is the problem. (I access these sites 50 times per day for past several years from my macs w/o any problem unitl I clicked submit on a post)
What else could be wrong. This is totally weird and driving me nuts

I have a similar problem.
A site I frequent (because I own it) is blocked from my mac. Also, any other site on my host's server is blocked as well.
These sites are blocked in Safari, Firefox and Explorer.
I am connected to the internet through a Netgear hub that two computers share. If I go and turn on the Windows machine downstairs, all the sites are accessible.
This makes me quite sure that it is my Mac that is doing the blocking.
I never set up any kind of blocking. One day I could get to my website, and the next day I couldn't. I upgraded from OS 10.2.8 to Tiger, and the problem carried over through the upgrade.
I've been searching everywhere for a solution, but I'm totally baffled.

  • WRT54G - Unable to block a specific site

    Hi,
    I was looking at the access restrictions policies for my router, I created a new policy and added 2 urls:
    1. www.cheese.com [This is a test, I've got nothing against the site]
    2. www.imperiaonline.org
    For some reason I don't seem to be able to block the second site, none of the computers configured under this policy can access the first URL but they can access the second. (So the Policy is working)
    Is there something specific this website is doing which stops me from blocking it?
    If anyone has any ideas of how I can block this website please let me know.
    Any help you can offer is appreciated.
    Kind Regards,
    Morph

    This could be an issue with the firmware of the router. If you do not have the latest firmware , upgrade it first. And then try to enable the Access Restriction again.

  • Blocked from a site!?

    I seem to have been permanently blocked from one certain web-site, by the person who's web-site it is. Is there anyway I can get around this?
    Thanks for your help
    Alexandria

    Hello Alexandria,
    Welcome to the Apple Discussions. You can use a proxy to get around the site blocking, but rather that doing that, try to reason with the site developer. If that fails, use a free proxy (search Google for lists of free proxies - there are just too many sites to list).
    When you've found a proxy that's close to your location (which is important since the speed of your connection depends on how close the proxy is to your location), enter it in System Preferences > Network > Proxies. Note that proxies that are free can monitor anything sent over it, including personal data which is why I highly recommend you use it as a last resort.
    Hope this helps,
    -Ryan

  • Sharepoint 2010 get User Groups from specific site

    Hello,
    I was able to get all User groups from entire site Collection.
    But instead of getting user groups from entire site, I want read user groups only from one specified sub site.
    Please help!
    Thanks

    Assuming you have an SPWeb object named "web", example:
    SPSite site = new SPSite(http://yourdomain/sites/yoursite);
    SPWeb web = site.OpenWeb("mysubsite/subsbusite");
    web.Groups will return a collection of SPGroup objects for the current subsite. If this subsite inherits permissions from a parent site (web.HasUniquePerm = False), the list is the same as the Groups property of the parent site.
    SPWeb.Groups:
    http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/office/microsoft.sharepoint.spweb.groups(v=office.15).aspx
    SPGroup:
    http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/office/microsoft.sharepoint.spgroup(v=office.15).aspx
    You would be better results by posting coding questions in "SharePoint 2010 - Development and Programming" instead of "SharePoint 2010 - General Discussions and Questions".

  • WRT54G ver 5.0 Blocked from secured sites

    We have the WRT54G ver 5.0.  As of Tuesday night we have been blocked from all secure web pages.  Has anyone heard of a fix for this?  I updated to the internet explore 7 on 1/2/07.  The problem seems very new. 

    Hi…
    First thing make sure u have the latest firmware on your router. Change the MTU of the router to 1300. And also forward the ports 443 to  447 for your router.

  • Clents from specific site loosing internet access randomly

    Hi, this is happening for a while on one of our site. First, here's an overview of our setup
    The problem is happening on clients of 12.x subnet. So randomly some clients can't browse internet sites. It happens for 30min-1h and then comes back by itself.
    Doesn't seem to be a routing issue as when the problem is happening I can still ping internet IPs
    Doesn't seem to be DNS related as I can resolve LAN and WAN DNS names from the problematic machine
    I also looked at my 3 DNS servers and A records are correct ith the correct IP for the client PC
    Browsing web sites on LAN is working fine
    The problem NEVER happened on the other site (subnet 8.x)
    When it's happening it's only to 1,2 or 3 clients and all others of the same subnet are working perfectly
    On TMG log, we can see traffic between the client and TMG but with "SYN packet was dropped because it was sent by a source that does not have an established connection with the Forefront TMG computer." errors. As soon as the client PC becomes alive
    again, the log doesn't show these "non-SYN" errors again.

    Hi,
    It sounds odd.
    How many clients access the internet at the same time? Does the issue exist all the time? 
    Which version of TMG do you use?Upgrade to the latest version may help you aviod this strange issue.
    Best Regards

  • This Connection is Untrusted...I accidently put in the wrong login info and a specific site and now I am blocked from it, how do I unblock this.

    After trying to login to a specific website three times, Firefox has now blocked me from this site. "This Connection is Untrusted" I have used this site for many years and need to be able to access it.

    Rename or delete the file cert_override.txt (cert_override.txt.old) in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Firefox Profile Folder] to remove all permanent exceptions that you have saved.

  • Is there a way to play an mp4 file at the beginning of a published project only when the project is accessed from a specific site?

    Is there a way to play an mp4 file at the beginning of a published project only when the project is accessed from a specific site?
    A little background info. I use Captivate 7 and currently have over 100 projects that I maintain on a quarterly basis. I publish using the SWF format and upload the swf/htm files to a server where they are then accessed from a few locations (within our online documentation, in our software product, on two different websites). Many of the projects are linked so some will be viewed as a series and others viewed as a standalone video. Each video uses the same template and includes an intro and end slide. Now my organization wants to implement a new intro to all videos (those I publish and those from several groups across the organization). My current intros provide overview material for the specific video so the new intro, which is an animation with audio in mp4 format, would need to be placed at the start of each project. The issue is, the intro adds 9 seconds to every video and in many cases doesn’t add any value (say, if a user accesses the video from within our product or views the videos as a series). I’ve talked it over with my boss and we want to try to add the intro only to videos accessed from site X, not any other location. So now to my question. Is there a way to play an external mp4 file (intro) only when the published project is accessed from a specific site, therefore eliminating the need to update each project? Maybe there's a way to add a parameter or variable to the URL or the html code?
    Thanks in advance for your suggestions. Please let me know if you need additional information.

    AimeeLove,
    I have a solution for you.  You may have to modify the code a little bit based on how long the timeline animation is for your clock.  I based mine on 3 seconds to complete a minute hand sweep around the clock.
    Milliseconds for each point on the clock:
    12 = 0
    1 = 250
    2 = 500
    3 = 750
    4 = 1000
    5 = 1250
    6 = 1500
    7 = 1750
    8 = 2000
    9 = 2250
    10 = 2500
    11 = 2750
    In the mouseover section for 12 o' clock, put this code...
    myVar = setInterval(function(){
         var pos = sym.getPosition();
         if (pos > 0 && pos < 50){
              sym.stop(0);
              clearInterval(myVar);
    },10);
    When you point to the time, the setInterval method loops every 100th of a second and checks the current position of the timeline.  When the timeline reaches the range between 0 and 50 milliseconds (almost impossible to hit 1 specific point), the timeline will stop at 0.  Also, the clearInterval will be fired to stop the loop.
    In the mouseout section, put this...
    sym.play();
    clearInterval(myVar);
    It start the clock again, and it also clears the loop in case you mouseout before you reach the range.
    Make sure that myVar is a global variable so you can clear it from the mouseout section.
    Repeat this for each point on the clock.  To avoid potential conflicts, you may want to use my12, my1, my2, etc. instead of myVar.  I put the milliseconds at the top that you would use as the beginning of the range.  50 milliseconds should be enough to catch it.  So, for 5 o' clock, you would make your range between 1250 and 1300.
    Let me know if you have any questions.  Thanks!
    Fred

  • Error while creating sites on entire site collection - the file you are attempting to save or retrieved has been blocked from this web site by server administrator

    Hi,
    I am trying to create a new sub site. Everytime I try to create the site I get this error:
    the file you are attempting to save or retrieved has been blocked from this web site by server administrator
    This applies to almost all site templates except the "blank site" template. I am logged in as System Administrator.

    Issue resolved!
    Don't know how but somehow, xml was added to the Blocked file types. Removing the entry did the trick.

    This is iweb development where after publishing, things look different in IE than other browsers. U r correct that this is due to IE software but is iWeb related. After all, one uses iweb not to just publish in Safari but for all browsers.
    Which means that you are only considering half of the problem, but that's your choice.

  • How to remove blocks from buffer cache for a specific object

    hi everybody,
    is it possible to remove blocks which belogns to a specific object (a table for ex) from buffer cache.
    as you know, there is
    alter system flush buffer_cache;command but it does it's job for all buffer cache. if you ask me why i want this, for tuning reasons. I want to test some plsql codes when they run as if they are running for the first time (reading from disk).
    ps: I use oracle 11g r2

    Hi mustafa,
    Your performance will not degrade if you run the query second time ( if i understood correctly, you worry about the performance if you execute the procedure second time). Executing/running the code/sql statements over and over again will have following two good benefits.
    1) This will avoid hard parsing (Hard parsing is resource intensive operation and this generally increase the overall processing time.
    2) This will avoid physical read IO (You gonna see the benefits if data blocks already cached and you dont have to spend time in reading blocks from disk. Reading from disk is much costlier and time consuming operation as compared to data in RAM)
    Having that said sometime bad written queries will acquire more blocks then required and consume most part of buffer cache, and this can some times effect the other important blocks and force to flush out from buffer cache.
    Oracle have built some intelligence for large full table scan operations for e.g will doing full table scan(I hope you already know what is fts) oracle will put its blocks at end of LRU chain. So these will be the buffers will would flush out first then any other.
    From oracle documentation:
    "When the user process is performing a full table scan, it reads the blocks of the table into buffers and puts them on the LRU end (instead of the MRU end) of the LRU list. This is because a fully scanned table usually is needed only briefly, so the blocks should be moved out quickly to leave more frequently used blocks in the cache.
    You can control this default behavior of blocks involved in table scans on a table-by-table basis. To specify that blocks of the table are to be placed at the MRU end of the list during a full table scan, use the CACHE clause when creating or altering a table or cluster. You can specify this behavior for small lookup tables or large static historical tables to avoid I/O on subsequent accesses of the table."

  • What is the best alternative to exclude results from a specific site collection

    Hi,
    We want to exclude results from a specific site collection (for example http://server/sites/demo").
    A few ways are being considered:
    1. Copy the Local SharePoint Results Result Source and edit it not to include results from that site collection and then set the new custom result source as default.
    2. Edit the Search Results WP in the "Everything" tab to exclude those results (edit the query there)
    3. Set a query rule on "Local SharePoint Results" to exclude the results from the Demo Site Collection
    What is the best?
    keren tsur

    Hi Keren,
    Modifying the Local result  xlt will give you the most granularity but it is also arguably more challenging because of the "editing code" portion
    On your search page you could append a query string via the search webpart but that may not get granular enough.
    In the past I have used search scopes to exclude items in search results. Depending on the specific requirement it may be a quick and easy way to accomplish your task. it really depends on how ganular you need to get with excluding items from results.
    A search scope can be setup be going to:
    1. Site Actions (of the site collection you want to apply this to)
    2. Click on Site Settings
    3. Under site Collection Administration ( you have to be a site collection admin or farm admin to be able to see this section)
    4. click on "Search Scopes"
    5. Click on New Scope
    6. Name it, fill out any other options you want and click "ok"
    7. Click on your newly created search scope.
    8. click on "new rule"
    9. Fill out the fields based on your requirements and then click "OK"
    10. I believe you will want to wait for a search to index to run before this scope will return any results.
    Please let me know if you have any other questions.
    Good Luck!
    Alex
