Further, the computer on that IP was part of a zombie army used in a personal DDoS attack against them in an attempt to knock them off the air. dsbl's response was to block access to their site from that IP. It is a defensive move taken by many sites to fend of attacks. What you need to do is find the backdoor on your computer and secure it so it can't be used by spammers and in future attacks on Internet sites. Richard
