IP address banned

I have sent an email to the forum. But has anyone else had their ip address banned?
I use my works computer and now all of a sudden i have been banned using my ip address.
This is strange, as one minute i was using the site and the next i couldn't. I will have to wait and see what the forum admin say

    My companies corporate firewall would do this , nothing I could do as it was in the firewalls policies and I would get blocked.

    Most companies use dynamic IP address allocation , it will be one of their IP addresses that is blocked on mse
