These currently include the time of the block and the IPs affected and will soon also include the reason for the block and advise whether it will be automatically unblocked after�two hours, or whether the administrator needs to contact Blackwell to have the IP address unblocked.� Additionally, the administrator is always free to contact us to obtain our web logs for their IP ranges.

If you would like any further assistance with unblocking your blocked IPs or more technical help, please send an email to Sean Fallon at customerservices@blackwellpublishing.com.  We will respond to your query as soon as possible.
