This is actually a common annoyance with Craigslist, and I'm sorry for your problems.

Craigslist says, "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 rarely if ever possible to pin down a specific cause. Other users can flag you for any or no reason.

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