##### READ THIS BEFORE USING THE LISTS BELOW HERE!
### If your website, or dedicated server, has an IP address falling within the ones below and you use absolute URLs in your includes or links, those pages will be blocked from loading.
### If this occurs you should find the IP of your website, or server, and allow it, using the example form: allow from (your IP address(es))
### You can find your website's IP address by logging into your website's Control Panel (e.g. Cpanel, Plesk, vDeck, Ensim) and it should be displayed on the control panel home page.
### You can also run a Whois lookup, at - http://whois.domaintools.com - on your domain name, to see the IP where it is hosted.
### Example of a page that might be blocked: You use PHP (or SSI) includes for headers, navigation links, or footers, using this form: <php include('http://www.example.com/folder/filename');
### If your web server is covered by this blocklist the included page will get a 403 forbidden server status.
### If you host multiple web pages and they communicate with each other using http scripts, the communication will break if either is listed, unless you add "allow from" directives on each web site's blocklist, for the other's specific IP address(es).
### You can also avoid having your own includes or linked pages blocked, by using relative URLs instead. E.g: <php include('/folder/filename');
## Servers should not be contacting other servers, trying to spam or exploit them. That's how they got on these lists in the first place!
## There are a lot of commonly used web servers covered by the following "deny from" lists! Your website may be hosted on an IP in these blocklists.
