Agh!
I keep getting this error everytime I try to get onto a certain site:

Forbidden

You don't have permission to access / on this server.

And I am not sure why. I can access the site when I am on a different network or through a proxy, but not from my home network. Is is possible that I was blocked from this site or something? Is there a way to get around this (other than a proxy)?

Can you tell us the site or give us a link to it so we can see if others get the same error.

Cheers!

Hey there.
Sorry.
The url is www.azchords.com
As I said, I can access the site from anywhere accept my home network so its not a problem on their side. Im almost certain that my IP has been blocked but I have no idea why... makes no sense to me.

So you can't get onto it using other browsers either?

Nope. Just tried it with safari (im on a mac).. and it gave me the same error actually. Just wondering if anyone knew what the error meant. As I said.. i can access the site from any other network than my home one.

From my linux experience it would appear that you are trying to access the root file system which is symbolized by a "/". Is the entire url that you are trying to get to www.azchords.com or is the more to it? I was able to get to it fine, and I was using FF3.

Cheers!
