(6,324 posts)If you are in a public connection then that is probably one people have used for spam or illegal ads.
If you are in your home connnection most providers rotate IP addresses periodically and you may have just been assigned one with a bad history. If so try unplugging your cable or DSL modem for 20-30 minutes and then power back up and you should get a new IP address assigend. Check your IP before and after to make sure it changes, if it doesnt you will gave to call your ISP and have them reassign a new one.

Also your regular IP might have been used for spam and was blocked.
You can try renewing your DHCP lease which should give you a new IP from your provider.
