   I am getting messages that KEMS has blocked this site. I am dissapointed to hear this and I will get to the bottom of this.

    I have Fastelco and I can see this blog.

    Maybe that’s an omen to switch to Fast Mark.

    Mark, your blog works on KEMS and loads just fine. Maybe the filter blocked a particular post, I do see some visitors using mild to heavy profanity while commenting on here. So, did Qualitynet fix your connection yet? =) or you changed the DNS? Funny when you say your site loads slowly on your Mac. cause other Kuwait blog sites are much slower than yours, including the saving of comments feature. Hope your internet issues get resolved.

20. 20. RoNiN | September 15th, 2009 at 9:32 am

    Hey Mark,
    seems like Kems have blocked you. since yesterday night i can not access it.

21. 21. anon | September 15th, 2009 at 9:47 am

    Mark,

    1. Please check the ratings of any of your website contents.
    2. Sometimes, it could be because of the Anti Virus Scanner at the KEMS site.
    3. Also depends on the user’s browser settings;

    There is nothing that you have said offending. In fact, apart from your adverts, I find most of your stuff very useful.

    Not to worry mate.

22. 22. Mark | September 15th, 2009 at 9:53 am

    Its a temporary problem with KEMS and its not just my blog but other websites are showing up blocked like Flickr. Should be resolved soon.

23. 23. Danish Dawood | September 15th, 2009 at 10:09 am

    Yes its true and i have faced it myself this morning… infact i wanted to check whether i was the lucky guy for the second giveaway and i couldn’t get on to the site. Its blocked.

24. 24. Maxson | September 15th, 2009 at 10:34 am

    Hey Mark, I am on Kems, and I check out your blog every single day without a problem. Kems loves you, and so do we…

25. 25. Aurous | September 15th, 2009 at 10:37 am

    Can come help me

35. 35. K | September 16th, 2009 at 7:34 pm

    Well this is a one off thing. Various famous sites were blocked yesterday at around the same time. I could read the feeds through Greader so there was no issue. Interestingly google and it’s apps were not blocked. Imdb/248/flickr etc were blocked.. So I guess it was some temporary outage. But it’s resolved today and all is fair again in Kems land.
