I am getting a Block Reason: Forbidden Category "Weapons" message when I try to look at pictures of Gerber Knives and I didn't set up Firefox to block anything.

I am trying to look and see some Gerber knives... when I click on the photo link I get the message -

This site has been blocked by the network adminstrator. Block Reason: Forbidden category "Weapons".

As far as I know I am the Network Admin. and I've not set up blocks. How do I unblock this?

This is probably one of several things:

  1. Your ISP has set up a content Filter that is blocking this website. (Least Likely)
  2. Someone has installed a content filter (OpenDNS, NetNanny, etc.) on your computer (most likely)
  3. There is a content filter somewhere on your network (router, firewall) that someone else has set up. (somewhat likely)

Either way, this isn't a Firefox problem (unless there is a Firefox add-on installed that is acting as a content filter) and you'll have to look elsewhere.
