Hi Srinidhi, Umm, yes groups.yahoo.com were blocked before in India. But it is open. I am facing this problem from particular ip address only.
My other public ips can open groups.yahoo.com, if i change the ip of squid it will solve the issue but that will not be parmanent solution. Might be yahoo people block my ip again and i would be helpless to my customer. We are also Class B ISP providing Internet services in Gujarat. We dont use dishnet as our bandwidth provider. Yes offcource dishnet blocks icmp packets. Well it is the problem from yahoo side, I have already mailed yahoo people on [EMAIL PROTECTED] but didnt recieve any reply from them till now. Let see.
