Do you have the same IP address since a long time ?
Maybe you inherited an IP address someone used to index the web ?
Did you mirror that site ?
Maybe the site blocks a whole block of IP addresses.

Also, Australia is known for internet censorship and chicanery.
Maybe the error message is hiding other problems.
Try going through a proxy.
