dor Posted January 15, 2009 Report Share Posted January 15, 2009 I think this has been on before; it's a problem with Orange, and maybe other ISPs, that seem to block thier server. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NB Alnwick Posted January 15, 2009 Report Share Posted January 15, 2009 (edited) I am with orange not sure if thats the problem Some mobile Internet service providers block a wide range of websites with images - it is worth talking to your service provider. I know with Vodafone I had to get them to unlock security settings because initially wouldn't allow me to see several quite harmless websites including Apolloduck.

Lady Muck Posted January 15, 2009 Report Share Posted January 15, 2009 (edited) When Gary Glitter was evading arrest in Vietnam I was out there getting into trouble at customs for pictures on a cdrom I was carrying. Was on my way to a factory to develop mens flip flops with photographic printed Playboy covers on the insole - nothing naughty - these were the classic covers from the 1950's, not so much as a flash of a nipple. They decided that I was importing pornography and took them off me. Highly inconvenient - the internet isn't so fast out there, had to get the images emailed to me at the factory instead, but because they were print quality images they were massive and took forever. Unlike Mr Glitter, I didnt know the correct officials to bribe. Working with Playboy enterprises was a nightmare because Vodafone kept blocking their intranet. as for Apollo dUCK hmmm I wonder.....
