Today when I tried to login in FST, GFT, bitgamer etc some trackers, browser redirected to opendns block. Said those sites are categorized as p2p and I cannot access them.
Did anyone else had this problem?

I've been using OpenDNS for over a year and never had those issues. Furthermore, I just tried to access GFT and bG and they worked.
Can you post a screen of the "site blocked" page?
Do you have an account on OpenDNS? If so, log in to it and check if P2P sites aren't blocked. Perhaps someone hacked it and enabled that.Quote:
Not allowed on this network
If not, you can e-mail them about this. Make sure you write your IP range so that they can check who's causing the block.
Just as you suggested to me earlier to have a look at it :lol:Quote:

Yeah, cool mate... not having a go, just thought it was funny with the timing of it etc :)Quote:

Must be your acct. setting or something. :unsure:
I have also been using opendns for over a year. No problems ever.
I checked settings, filtering level is set to none. Anything else I missed.
I forgot my OpenDNS account details (only made that account to see what I could change), so I couldn't tell :lol:Quote:

Bloody Hell. Its working again.
Blocked for 2 hrs and everything fine again. I hope it keeps working now.
Good to hear. :)
If trackers are blocked again, you can always run ipconfig /flushdns to clear Windows's DNS cache and try again, just in case. Some browsers also implement an extra cache of their own - if you're on Firefox I think there's an addon to manage it, but you can easily flush it by closing and restarting the browser anyway :happy:
