internet blocking problem ?

[jwsmobile]

I am forwarding this to a friend in Australia for him to do more 
extensive comment and diagnosis.

Try http://traceroute.org/ for diagnosing this.  It allows you to 
perform traceroute from cooperating servers across the world, including 
australia.

there are some sites you will have to ferret out to allow you to bypass 
country IP blocking.

And yet australia is one of the more stupid countries (exceeded only by 
Germany and the EU) about censorship, and fouling up the works.

Yes the page timed out on me.  I'll see if I can find the router that 
did it and post an update.

thanks
Jim
