If you're sure it's someone else on your server and not you, talk to powweb and get an IP change.

In my opinion, you should talk with your webhost provider first and clarify it from their end before jumping to any conclusion.

get a new IP, tell the company to assign you a new one

Same here, I'm not familiar with the banning of IP in different countries. All I can recall was my account in DP was banned and they were saying something like a certain country banned me.. something like that..

It is very common scenario nowadays. you have many options in this open market. Don't worry.

Definatly check with your webhost provider, or just switch all together.

Like everyone pretty much stated above, ask your provider to switch your IP address and if its still having the issue, it may be because the server that they have you on in general is IP blocked in which you may need them to ask whomever is responsible for blocking the IPs to place them in the whitelist. I know that we had to do that with companies like AOL because someone was abusing our mail server but thats about the only reason we have such an issue.

is your site a dedicated ip or share ip?

If is dedicated ip, you site content may...

If share ip, it's hard. Less webhost provider would change site ip...

I too have had the same problem, does anyone know the answer????

You can`t do anithing with this ban

I think you should get a new IP and start with new IP

I suggest taking LeenkzMike's advise... Try to survey a good web hosting. I am sure there are lots of hosting provider out there that is not yet being attacked mostly by spammers.

i heard first time from you, what is IP banning

if it it banned by a country, only thing you can try is see if there is objectionable content. and try to remove it,

They blocked Google for some time.. So it shouldn't surprise to see any IP banned. See if you can use a proxy.

I think you can request to powweb for change the ip address or change to other server.
I think you should use hostgator or hostmaster which is provide better services.Or get a dedicated ip address.........
China Goverment always like ban this and that.........My goverment think twice before ban any website.

Yea, if you use a proxy and can see your site then it is your ISP most definitely. But if not, then its the server being blacklisted in which your hosting provider must be made aware of it then they have to contact companies to get their server ip's unblocked. Mostly, this is caused because people are using the server to spam and that is why it typically gets blocked.

Been there, dealt with this many times over.

send email or make a call to powweb for change the ip address or change to other server if you think your site blocked

Shared hosting always having this problem. One of the site is banned, all websites that shared with that IP get banned in that country as well. Get a dedicated IP hosting, reassign to your hosting.

Ohh at that time China banned Google so only because of it your site is banned now you can see your site may working if not than just change the IP for your site or i suggest change the server. It may help you.

Use, proxy simply.
