i have a DSL internet connection through the phone company CenturyTel. at first i could visit any site but after a month it started blocking half of the sites i go to. here is what it says:

this is getting quite annoying escpecially when it makes mistakes about what i am viewing (i.e. it will call somthing porn and block it when it has nothing to do with porn. it has done this many times with many subjects) or even when i am veiwing somthing it doesn't like (i.e. i lost my 98 SE cd-key so i went to get it from seriall.com and it blocked seriall saying it was crime. it isn't crime if i have an original copy and just lost the key!) anyway, bottom line is i would like to get around it. does anyone else out there have centurytel and know how to get around this?? the weird thing is that my friend david has the same service and his doesn't block him at all and he has had it for more then a year. please help as I am getting extremely frustrated and starting to think about going back to dial-up AOL! PLEASE HELP!!!
Argue for your limitations and sure enough, they're yours.
