I went to a site i wanted to download something from. They only allow a certain number of downloads per IP (for obvious reasons) per day.

And it said: Sorry 62.252.192.4! Only 10 downloads per day!

Please visit us tomorrow.

WTF? That isnt my IP. So, I make sure I have no proxy set in IE. I don't.

I then said...OH NO, surely ntl havent turned default proxies on in Manchester (war coming up, i see it now)....

The proof of the pudding came when i checked a proxy lookup.

Oh no....
