Delicious Blocking?

Hi there,

I was wondering if delicious has a blocklist for certain addresses and
what its resulting behaviour is?

I've tried the support contact several times on the website but to no
avail. I was wondering if anyone would have a contact? We have a
small address range which currently seems not to be able to connect to
del.icio.us at all - one of our users flagged this up. From my normal
address it is fine:

# telnet 69.147.76.140 80
Trying 69.147.76.140...
Connected to 69.147.76.140.
Escape character is '^]'.
GET /

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">
<html id="delicious">
<head>
<title>del.icio.us</title>
etc
Trying 69.147.76.140...
Connected to 69.147.76.140.
Escape character is '^]'.
Connection closed by foreign host.
%

Is it possible to see anywhere online whether we are blocked from a
specific subnet and if so what specific IP address has caused the
block so that we might take action against them, and restore our service?

Thanks for any help anyone can offer..

Robin.

That doesn't look like out normal blocking response, though it does
resemble one we've had problems with in England that appears to be a
bad router somewhere in an ISP. Ping me off-list with your ip address
and I'll see if we can find anything on our end.

From the other subnet (used by our users) we just get thrown
