I think you misunderstand what he meant ray, CFC's are not blocked, that would be silly, , but some of the functionality BlogCFC and many other apps require is CreateObject(java) and many even use the CF runtime. Many hosts block these for good reason, as they circumvent any sandbox security that may be setup and do present a security issue. Unfortunately most developers simply do not understand the security side of things and do not consider shared hosting when developing their apps, so their answer is always "find another host host", which invariably means "find an insecure host who don;t care about security".
