    Why did OpenDNS block this Facebook site??? It's Warbook a game for heaven sake. Now I can't even open the game even if I logged out from openDNS =( This is what I get when I log on to Warbook (Site blocked. warbook.workisboring.com is not allowed on this network.)

    It's not a Facebook domain - it's run by a 3rd party, and the only category it's been assigned in OpenDNS is proxy/anonymizer.

    You can easily add this domain to your OpenDNS whitelist if you have admin rights.

    If you aren't the OpenDNS admin at your site, then you should find and speak to that person and explain why you need to access a proxy site to play games at work.

    Posting to the OpenDNS forums won't unblock the domain name for you.

    :shocked:

    "Why did OpenDNS block this Facebook site???"
    This is the big misunderstanding. OpenDNS really never ever blocks anything (beside phishing and conficker domains). This is ONLY THE ADMIN OF YOUR NETWORK (as billso mentioned), who is able to get OpenDNS to block anything. Clearer now?
