Triratna Posted October 26, 2011 Posted October 26, 2011 I got access restriction from cloudflare. saying that it requires human input before i access Loverslab forum. Not just loverslab. I also got this whenever i visit Blog and several other website. What the heck is up with the Access Restricted page? I've never seen this before and all of a sudden I keep getting it on a computer that I have been using to access the site for months on end. The warning page seems, to me, to be a sort of scare-ware tactic to make people think they need to buy some anti-virus software (especially since the page recommends some software to fix a problem I don't have). It's annoying i tell you! anyone experiece this before and know how to handle it? Is this sort of malware or worms?? This couldflare antivirus advertising keep spamming and restrict my internet access.
Ashal Posted October 26, 2011 Posted October 26, 2011 Cloudflare is a service for websites that restricts potentially threatening users, and helps cache webpages for better speed. It determines if a user is threatening by location, potential trojan horses, and ip spammers database. Obviously it's not perfect and might block good users from time to time. Nothing I can really do about this other than turn down the security options on loverslab cloudflare settings, this would however result in an increase in spambots, and we already get a lot of spam bots as is. Only advice I can think to give you is to run a virus scan, make sure you are clear of any viruses on your computer, and if still get restricted, maybe contact cloudflare support and find out why your blacklisted.
Ashal Posted October 26, 2011 Posted October 26, 2011 I can also whitelist your IP for loverslab specifically. It would be better though to figure out why cloudflare has marked you as a threat and take care of that, that way you get unlocked from every site rather than just individual sites.
polluxval Posted October 26, 2011 Posted October 26, 2011 if he have a static ip could help triratna. if not:
Slammer64 Posted October 27, 2011 Posted October 27, 2011 Get a copy of malwarebytes, Trirtna and run a scan, it's free and it works.
Triratna Posted October 29, 2011 Author Posted October 29, 2011 OH MY GOD!!! MY 50% PERMANENT BANN IS GONE~!!! D: Well, i'm..uh speechless..Thanks, i guess.
demongoat Posted November 6, 2011 Posted November 6, 2011 bleh it's blocking me randomly it sometimes blocks me when i go to other pages on the loverspk subforum. don't think i have any virii or anything.
GSBmodders Posted November 6, 2011 Posted November 6, 2011 cloudfart screws me over too, opening up ll in a different browser helps for a bit but then cloudfarts hits them as well.
Triratna Posted November 8, 2011 Author Posted November 8, 2011 Once Cloudflare mark a spell on you. It compels & repels you from entering other website under cloudflare's protection. As if we're some Uruk-Hai on Helm's Deep imagine that.

As if we're some Uruk-Hai on Helm's Deep imagine that. They don't do it without good reason, going by your IP, cloudflare has you marked as a botnet zombie, which means you are very likely infected by a trojan, which is a security risk for you and means your computer is contributing to DDOS attacks. They annoy you specifically so you can be in the know and fix it. I have added your IP to the trusted list on cloudflare now though, so you atleast shouldn't be bothered on LoversLab again. And I've lowered cloudflares security setting, so it should be more more selective in it's blocking of people.
HentaiGnome Posted December 12, 2011 Posted December 12, 2011 I'm experiencing a CloudFlare error as well, but instead of an access restriction issue, it's more of like an error message that I would receive if the connection server times out. I posted a separate thread regarding my issue to avoid hijacking this one: http://www.loverslab.com/showthread.php?pid=69710#pid69710
DocClox Posted February 6, 2012 Posted February 6, 2012 If it helps anyone, I get periodic "website is down" messages from CF. What they actually mean is "your browser isn't letting us run javascript, so we're pretending the site is down". You can turn js back on, load LL and then disable it for cloudfart again and browse normally.
blueblue Posted February 6, 2012 Posted February 6, 2012 you could set your browser to use google as a proxy, that should clear almost everything.
