Is anyone else having problems getting on imdb? I keep getting 403 errors, most annoying. It says something along the lines of

your Internet address or web browser or proxy server has been banned for misuse of our service, e.g. overloading our servers with automated requests that are just too fast

It crossed my mind that this was fancy talk for "fuck off using our services for free so much, we want money!". But then again, I might be paranoid.

K, works now I've changed proxy server. Still confused though :<

typical. peeps finally use your service, then you ban them. still, I can imagine that a busy proxy can swamp a site like that
