All I can think of is that this IP address is blacklisted somewhere. Unfortunately contacting my ISP provider is a pain in the *ss so I will let it be. Thanks, Scott!

Just to give you more info on this issue... If I use a VPN from anywhere in the world, including my own country, I can login with no problems. If I use any of my ISP public addresses (by restarting the modem) ProBoards will block my login. Go figure!

Hi,
What is the specific message you're receiving? We don't block any country wholesale, it's more likely that the IP range you're using is associated with malicious activity and is therefore blocked on our network.

Hi Michael, thanks for replying. I don't receive any messages, I just get the annoying captcha warning every time I try to access the forum and then I get a page without any functionality, there's no login icon. If I use a VPN, everything is normal. I don't get it, if someone has used one of the whole range of public IP addresses from one of the 3 biggest internet service providers of the whole country for malicious activity, something like 70 million users are being blocked by Cloudfare, than what am I supposed to do? Use VPN? Isn't that a counterproductive measure, when most malicious activities are through VPNs? Should I contact my ISP and tell them to change their whole IP range because of Cloudfare? I'm sorry but they won't do it. I think this is a major issue with Cloudfare DDoS 'protection'. I have to access other websites through the 'one moment please, 5 seconds...' annoying message and recently it's taking much more than 5 seconds and sometimes the page goes into loop and I have to start from square one, because I have to save my work and instead of that the Cloudfare warning keeps popping up. Maybe Cloudfare is having their own problems due to their successful enterprise being overloaded with clients, IMHO. This is what I get when trying to access Cloudfare's link on the annoying captcha page Isn't that ridiculous? Oh, and the annoying captcha appears even when I try to logout from here and that's what I get Enable cookies? Really? They're all enabled.
