In the UK? Being told you’re already downloading or have failed the CAPTCHA too many times by file hosting sites for no reason? You might be being IWF’d.

Yeah, my bad. I messed up when tweaking something live. It should only have been active for about a minute or so.

Makes me glad that I'm on an ISP that doesn't sign up to the IWF crap.
Which? I've found tracking down information like this rather difficult. Has anyone documented it exactly?
It seems that the general rule is that if you don't want to deal with IWF bullshit, then don't sign up to any of the large ISPs. The business-oriented niche ISPs tend to be filtering-free. Although when the IWF blacklisted those Wikipedia images a couple of years ago I had no problem accessing it (lawl Streisand effect) on several large consumer ISPs + a mobile broadband dongle.
The ISP I use is Xilo :- http://www.xilo.net/adsl_broadband/#office
