Thanks for the info. Was some heavy spam attempts from an aol ip range, were blocked, which by chance included your ip. Sorry for the problem, but at least I see the blocking works. 'Open for business' now, try and let me know if it's ok.
This could happen again now and then over time, trying my utmost to check banned ip blocks against ip's used by members, but I'm only human..., + ususally this work is done late at night. PS, do not expect to reach the forum if you're on holiday in like Russia, Ukraine, China etc.
Any member getting the 'Forbidden' or 'banned' message (or being redirected to some strange website 
log on from a different place\internet provider or mobile\proxy, and post about it \ send me an email\pm and it'll get fixed as soon as I read it.Thanks
