I Have Been Locked Out Of My Craigslist Account.

I get the following message every time I try to log on to Craigslist. Can you help? I don't do anything weird on the account so am baffled. This IP has been automatically blocked. If you have questions, please email:

Craigslist states:

Posts may be removed or omitted from index pages and search results by automated systems, CL staff, or community moderation -- for non-compliance with terms of use, site guidelines, and/or community norms.


It's not possible from the information you've provided to discern the source of the problem. And it might not be possible under any circumstances; Craigslist's determinations often seem arbitrary.

You may be able to solve the issue with the use of a Web proxy, as offered free at http://www.zend2.com/. Fellow Help Owl volunteer smcclurken has additional suggestions here.
