Validation Problem

    refinance-mortgageloan dot com. This site has been validating fine for the past several months but is failing now. I just checked my site and it is up and the ads are showing. Here is the error message:

    Account not not yet activated. | [size=-1]Site failed automatic validation as of 2005-03-14 (make sure URL and site type is correct - if everything is correct, make a request in the forum for assistance). [/size]


    It is not giving me a specific page. I tried it several times and it failed each time.

    Update:
    It appears that my host is having some issues. Please disregard for now until I can sort it out with them. If it still does not validate, I'll bump this thread.

    Latest:
    Host is sorted out but still not validating.

    I wonder if something could be timing out. I gave up on loading the page.

    Okay. I sorted things with my host and my site was loading very slow. But all is well. I have double checked my site and ads are showing.

    Shawn can you take a look to see what's up? The url is in the first post.

    Looks like it might be on an IP address that the ad server automatically blocked for making too many requests to the ad server (not caching ads).

    It may have been related to my host reconfiguring the server the past few days. Can it please be unblocked I am sure that it is fine now?

    What's the IP? What has been changed on your server to fix it?

    It is a shared hosting plan. The IP should be: 213.232.89.202 (www. refinance-mortgageloan . com). The server was getting some new hardware and it was being booted up quite a few times NOT sure if this is the issue at hand but the two events seem to coincide.

    Rebooting the server would not do it...

    I didn't think so but I can't find any other reason why this is not working. It was working fine until the hardware issues. And this is not that busy of a server. Can you unblock it this one time?

    Added Note:
    I have to ask the stupid question just to confirm. Is my IP that I listed being blocked due to caching issues?

    Okay just tried to validate again and all is well. So I guess you unblocked it or whatever was giving it hicups is done.
