Sorry I didn't mean to offend anyone. It might be something to do with my ISP.
Can you please check WDC website? Thank you.

Still denied for me.
I got caught nicking a Mars Bar from Woolworths when I was an impressionable 7 year old. Perhaps it's coming back to haunt me.

No VPN in use here
[EDIT] @Lazarus I think it's down to your WiMAX broadband, you might find you have a non UK IP or even a non EU IP, depending on who your co op buys their broadband from the connection might be routed through other countries or via satellite.
I know the mobile phone company FreedomPop (who I've posted about before) gives out UK IP addresses on their US global SIM cards - mainly because they're UK Three SIM Cards - so customers in the US are Geolocked out of Pandora and Netflix.
Your IP range may also have been added to a spam/hacker blacklist.
On the page that says no, is there not a contact webmaster link or a report link?

It's a pretty minor issue, whatever the root cause.
Can't recall it ever happening before.
My ISP delivers Broadband to me Wirelessly via a 5GHz WAN, but I doubt that has anything to do with it, or else surely I'd have experienced the same issue pursuing other links?

And to think, the loss of that mars bar brought the whole company down...

No. Clannet is a local enterprise ....... The IP address is most definitely a UK one. The network links into Virgin and BT fibre networks a few miles away and there's no foreign routing or Satellite involved.
As for being on a block list, it's odd that this is an isolated incident.
No, there's no Report link or anything like that.
It' s really not something that troubles me, other than curiosity.

No, it´s word association that is the problem, even this forum suffers from it. Try spelling some totally legitimate words and see if the software changes it.
I am openly mature content! ( i said G A Y ) and look what it did!
As an example
The software mistook you for a shirt lifter!
