[z3r04cc355]

I am unable to browse RS and WBB.
Rest all the sites are opening easily. Wat cud b problem? Its surely problem with my ISP. But y this happens?
RS is not down, or is it possible dat they hv banned my IP?
Coz this happened some months ago, but started after 1-2 hrs...

Im browsing frm home, also i hv dynamic IP. My ISP is Tata Indicom (VSNL). I had called them for this issue and they said problem will get solved after 2-3 hrs.
What can I say abt this? And why this happens?

Well you have to give a bit more information. A lot of places like colleges, schools, librarys etc have banned Warez-BB. Not near as many have banned Rapidshare but you'll have to tell us:
1.) if your at home what's your internet provider
2.) Where are you located (that should be enough as we don't want you to post your IP address)

Information updated.

having the Same problem with Warez-bb RS opening though...
My ISP is MTNL.
i am at home no blocking software installed or anything.

it willl get okay within a day max.
It happened to me thrice but it resolves itself

Ok so the most likely problem is their receiving a dos attack or some other simillar attack and have temporally blocked the IP range. The problem in India where it is based is a large number of users share similar IP addresses. This happens way more so than other countries like the US or UK so when one IP range is blocked it only affects a few hundred users rather than in India where it affects a couple of thousand.
Their's not much you can do about this besides be patient and wait for the doss attack to stop and the IP to be unblocked. Until then you have little choice but to use a proxy or other similar method to hide your IP address.

No need to flame or go off topic dude. We're all trying to help each other out here. If your not interested in helping then don't reply.

Its working fine now.

Great to hear. I'm guessing the attack stopped and your now free to view the site again. Glad it all worked out

There may some prob with wbb, its not opening for me also, but RS is opening as usual.

Still, WBB is not opening. Who needs it although?
I go there only for passing time. Not for downloads n shit...
