I want to access a website or three.
When I key in my search query, I get this crap
Safe @ Office 500

Access Denied

www.hollywoodtacticalarms.com was blocked because
it belongs to the following categories:

Anyone know who this bunch of dickheads is?
Can anyone tell me why this is on my PC? I've never seen
it before, don't know anything about it and searching for
it seems to show that it is something that businesses buy,
not something that consumers stick on their PCs.

Doesn't matter what gun dealer I key in, same answer.

I can search for Bass Pro no problem. Still guns but I
don't get this moralising ****.

Is it a legal requirement? How can someone block access
to a business website that is not breaking the law?

TIA

works here

OK, so it looks like it is on my PC for some reason. I checked
the firewall for "parental controls" but my firewall is turned off
as my Eset controls the security. I can't see anything in Internet
Options that would stop it and I've done a search on the PC for
things that look like any combination of the above for no result.
Irritating.
Still looking for suggestions if any.....

Do you have any other devices - handphone?, friend? - that you can try
to access this site? Here we have many government blocked sites. If
you try to access them you get a message that the side is blocked in
accordance of, whatever(don't remember the actual text).

That would at least tell whether it was a fault on a specific computer
or a web or server problem.

Good thinking 86.
