My VPN is banned
I just discovered that my VPN was IP-banned when I try Sweden but when I try from the US everything's alright. Haven't had this problem before - has the IT department been up to shenanigans?
It's not a huge hassle, but it's annoying.

Re: My VPN is banned
They occasionally block a particular IP Address when it has been used by spammers or by someone they've banned who sets up sock puppet accounts to try to get around the ban. IP Addresses used by VPN's are particularly likely to be hit with such a ban; it's the nature of the beast.
