Try using www.safeweb.com
enter godaddys url and see if it works.
Whenever I can't access a site...i usually try safeweb and find out that i can access the site...don't know why...maybe it could be your ISP.

Thanks for the help. Now I can access to some other site which Malaysian was prevented from accessed to including Godday

Thanks for the info. But I just wondering why this can happen, anyone can explain?

Hello
If someone in the same IP range as you tried to attack their server then your IP would be blocked as well.
Every day we have whole ranges of IP addresses from south east asian countries, the philippines and @home users blocked by our servers so thats probably what happened in this case.
Eventually the blocks are automatically lifted.

This is the most likely explanation.

ether that or they dont want their citizens to access such information. kinda like how in Iraq and many other Middle East Countrys, and also China. They block any websites that they feel are flaming their counrty in any way not limiting Governement Parctices, and freedom. It think that would realy suck, thats why im gald i moved to the states. :D
