[Tfug] Blocked (or Black Listed) Address

[Ronald Sutherland]

I've had Linux on these addresses for some years now with this setup 
(more or less).

I first noted the problem about 3-4 months ago, when I sent a page link 
to my mom that she could not see, I figured some 10 million other 
problems was going on.

The reason I'm looking at this is so I can run a Ventrilo (its like 
voice over IP) server to talk with home. I guess I'll have to move the 
address of the computer I want to run the voice chat server on to one 
that still works.
