[QUOTE="MacInWin, post: 1933051, member: 396914"] This is a really looooong shot, but... Sometimes sites will block certain IP addresses if they receive abuse from those addresses. Unfortunately, most ISPs assign your IP from a block that they have reserved, and if someone in that block is blocked for that abuse, you get caught up in it as well. Now, technically, I think private browsing is supposed to hide the IP for you, but it may not be doing so properly for you. You can try a VPN to "hide" your IP and pop into the internet somwhere else outside your immediate location. As I said, it's a long shot, but at this point you have little to lose to try it. [/QUOTE]
