Two weeks in Taiwan w/o Iboats. Withdraw starting to set in. Any plans for the future or permanent blockage of Asian IP addresses?

Iboats blocks areas (countries) that were (are) deemed high security risks for hacking.

Security flaws in the previous vB software was a major (primary ?) reason for the migration to the new software that's been reeking havoc w/ the forum since May.

I suspect if there's no access now, there won't be in the future either.

We are hoping to allow these areas access again once things are working and stable.

I am currently using the Chrome browser extension/addon ZenMate. It works fine from Afghanistan. I'm currently writing this from Bagram Airfield now. I have it set up to connect me through the New York server. I couldn't live without my Iboats fix for 7 months, wasn't happening. :rolleyes:
