noknojon Posted December 19, 2009 ID:173013 Share Posted December 19, 2009 Welcome Hawkwind -As you can read from the link below Twistee is regarded as a failure in general and it is better not to use them -http://www.twistee.org/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=72#p296If you like we can tell you how to go around this , but it is considered better to stay away from them -Thank you - If YoKenny1 or MysteryFCM is online you can be shown Hosts Files link to the reason it is not very good - Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

noknojon Posted December 19, 2009 ID:173021 Share Posted December 19, 2009 It is a bad site and MysteryFCM will show why - Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MysteryFCM Posted December 19, 2009 ID:173030 Share Posted December 19, 2009 As mentioned in the other thread, the IP lies within a BlueHost IP range, which until recently, contained a huge amount of malware/exploits, which is why it is blocked. However, depending on activity and responsiveness within the next 14 days, they'll be removed. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

noknojon Posted December 20, 2009 ID:173076 Share Posted December 20, 2009 Sorry -Sometimes our replies are a but quick and should be a bit better explained - If you read the link I left it shows that site as general "garbage" -I hope you read it and saw how it provides nothing of value to the community in general - That is why it was Flagged and the Blue Host range is considered bad -These type of items are reviewed every few weeks and if the Malware/Infections in there clear up it wil be reinstated - (As per MysteryFCM)-This was explained to you in a previous question you asked !!!!Thank you - Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
