My internet place is protected with VPN. I have not been able to log into Pprune for the last ten days using the Pprune.org or Pprune.com link. iPads seemingly have no problem and neither do telephones, perhaps because they use some back door method of accessing the forum. We have no parental controls, a fact that is often bemoaned by my thirty year (+) old offspring.
Any suggestions around the present back door operation would be useful. I had thought that Pprune themselves were blocking a load of ip addresses because of deliberate spamming.
