Norton Internet Security blocks RPGDot
   

My norton Internet Security blocks the RPGDOT sites. It is the only site that my NIS blocks completely.
Its very irritating because i have to turn of my protection to visit this site, with my previous version of NIS (2003) i did not have those problems.

How can i fix this, if other people have the same problems it might cause a drop in visisters.

Thanks

Does it tell you why it is blocked? We have nothing running here, at least to my knowledge, that could cause the site being blocked - not even ads at the time

I think it's because this is a 'wicked' site!! I know I spend far too much time here enjoying myself!! That can't be legal can it? Myrthos will probably figure it out.

I haven't use Norton products for 2-3 years since they seriously screwed up and slow down my PC.

There should be manual internet security settings, no? try to find them.

The screen just stays empty. I know NIS blocks some pictures but i never before had that it blocked a page.

Could that be the problem?

There should be a way to declare RPGDot as a trusted site. Have you tried that?

I tried that before and that did not work, i finnaly tested every setting (4) on their own and rpgdot gets blocked on commercials supression (i got a Dutch version so this is a rough translation.

The 4 parts of NIS are
Privacy Control
Commercal suppression (reclame onderdrukken)
Norton Antispam
Parential supervision.

Now i located the problem so at least i don't have to take down the entire NIS to visit. That is great.
But to fix the problem i need the html-signslines to add so the site doesn't get blocked anymore. That should take some testing.

Thanks for the help so far.

Great . If this ever happens again, check if ads.rpgdot.com has changed into something else (this will happen in the near future).
