I think here's the correct place, it's been asked before and I'm sure a forum team member will read and respond to it. Maybe you could send a message to the forum team and what IP address you are using so they can check ?

I just got the same message as well but it was when I wasn't logged in.

Try here

took 5 seconds to search the forum for it

System

An IP address or a range of addresses can be flagged as suspected of being used by a spammer.

If the ISP of the culprit does not take action to stop their spamming, then the IP address can be blocked on the internet.

Since, most ISP's use dynamic IP address allocation, it is possible for your network to be given a temporary IP address that was blocked previously.

You can try rebooting your router (if applicable) so that it is assigned a different IP address - could solve it. Or contact your ISP (and MSE as per previous post) if the problem persists.

I've had the same message pop up a couple of times now whilst cruising the MSE forums. I've just ignored it and carried on as normal. It doesn't seem to have any effect on anything at all.
