All of a sudden when I try to bring up this web site on my laptop I get this message:

Error 1005 Ray ID: 7349eb7f4d12aa88 . 2022-08-02 21:31:20 UTC

Access Denied

The owner of this website (www.corvetteforum.com) has banned the autonomous system number (ASN) your IP address is in (20473) from accessing this website.

Can someone help me with this? I was just on here 3 hours ago with no problem.

This is due to using a VPN. You will need to disable the VPN or use a different VPN. Some VPNs are blocked, at Cloudflare, due to their abuse.

Thank you! I don't understand what a VPN is or how it suddenly blocked me from using this site but now I can access this great forum again. I appreciate the help.

I am having the same problem after being on this site this morning. My VPN is turned off but I am getting the same error message. Is there something else I can do?

You will need to check again. Your VPN is still active, according to the information you posted.

I think I've found the problem and it seems to be with my McAfee antivirus. After finding there was a VPN setting with McAfee, I turned that off and this site came back. Hoping this will be the last of my problem.
