No, it's not internet speed. I open this site in a second and I can't open wc3campaigns if I leave it over 30 minutes. Is it possible that wc3campaigns got that protection like myspace has so that people cannot acces it from school?

If so, how can I fix this, because I am on my home computer and it seems that the interent sees me as a school computer and does not allow me acces to myspace and all sites with that protection.

Your home computer wouldn't be seen a school computer. Now excuse me whilst I lol.

Websites don't 'block school computers', websites are blocked by software. Although, some websites do block certain IP ranges. Examples of this is when Demonoid was blocked by Canada's Government and what Goolag are currently doing to China.

Free Internet From Censorship!

Anyway; if anything, your parents have installed some new software on your PC that restricts you from visiting website that they've deemed 'wrong'. Now, have you or your parents installed any new anti-virus/firewall styled software? Anything like ZoneAlarm, Norton Antivirus or McAffee?

Actually Demonoid wasn't blocked by the Canadian government, Demonoid was threatened by a lawsuit so they blocked themselves off from Canadian traffic in order to comply with it.

And yeah, this is no such case. Most school computers have filtering software installed that stops you from browsing on websites that your schoolboard deems inappropriate for one reason or another.

Nah, that was me then, I installed Bit Defender, but I never set any restriction options(which is why I didn't expect that it was the problem). But, regarding myspace, I can't open the page even with 0 firewalls or anti-vir or anything.

Is the sky blue? :wink:

Seriously now, forgive my good-natured stab at Wc3c. :smile:

It might be a network issue, meaning either the route from your ISP to WC3C's server may be experiencing problems, or perhaps there is software/hardware in your home network that is interfering. Lastly, it might be a DNS issue, but I doubt that based on what you described so far.

The irony of your statement is that The Hive's been having a few DNS issues over the last few days xD
