I came home from a trip, turned on my computer, and found that I am
now blocked from certain favorite web sites. I am taken to a page at
"www.blocked-website.com <http://www.blocked-website.com>" which tells
me, for example, "Sorry, but (site) is blocked on this network. This
site was categorized in (category). Contact your network
administrator." Underneath this message it says "Powered by OpenDNS."
OpenDNS appears to be legitimate, offering parental controls, but
there are no children in this household, and I do not use their
services. There are only two computers in the house, my Mac and my
wife's PC, both connected to the Internet via a router. Neither have
parental controls activated.
I contacted my provider, Verizon, and they maintain that nothing has
changed with them and that the problem is in my computer.
Computer is a dual 1.25 GHz MDD PowerPC G4 running OSX 10.5.8. Browser
is Safari 5.0.6.
What goes on here?

just a note on this -
times it has happened that some other one has spammed the the "network
lines" --try to shut down you internet connection or rest the modem
and your problem has gone away.
