Was the a recent change to this website? I used to be able to access it on Firefox and explorer at work during my breaks and throughout the day. Now for some reason it is being blocked and categorized as SUSPICIOUS.

What gives?

Could have come from this. I was able to view the site for a few days after that thread popped up. So either the IT department is finding something fishy or the site has changed

Scragg flipped a few switches and pulled a few levers. Let us know if you have any further issues.

EDIT: In other words, the site is using https now.

my company's content web filter sees it as a games site.

yeah i am having an issue too. Whenever I type in the ffxiah.com into any address bar I am redirected to https://www.ffixah.com// and it times out. I can only get to the site by searching for it on google.

I'll have to try searching it on google then. Something over the past few hours on this site changed. That, or the recent change to https was discovered by my company as a suspicious website and they subsequently blocked it. Weird because if I access the same website through work laptops, phones, or tablet (or company wifi) the site isn't blocked.

Just tested. Same issue. I can get on this site now from work but only if I access it from google search. Going directly to the site is blocked.

Many company/corporate[/government contractor) IT depts have a list of approved sites for use. Anything that isn't on that list can be flagged as not allowed or suspicious depending on user access group permissions. FFXIAH has ads. This is also the most probable reason that it gets categorized as suspicious. Sometimes ads can contain malicious code or what an internet security program might consider a potential threat, even those that are a part of Google AdSense...

This is not the reason why it is being flagged now. Have worked at this company for 7 years and have visited this website with no issues since then. Only until I made this thread did this website become an issue. Something was changed and it's being blocked from direct access. It can still be accessed from search engines, but whatever direct front end settings were changed, is causing the site to not load for certain people.
