Try clearing your open proxies and request an unblock. You can direct Nmap at your own ip to check your servers' status. I know this is hard and complicated, but that is why there is a blanket policy blocking sites with open proxies; they can be exploited at any time by multiple users.

Now a more policy concern is, why would you ban an IP when it do indeed make webhosting? It sounds like a "shoot first at anything that would remotely look like a dirty face criminal, and then if it survive let it try to bring
proofs that it's not guilty" policy.


Because posters from hosting ranges are usually using open proxies
running on said host. Though not always, of course.
