Been trying to log into iboats for close to a year now. so have used a proxy server to post this and log in. when i try to use my chrome or IE 10
it says cannot connect or site is down or not valid. is iboats blocking international users from accessing the site? i am in new zealand thanks

We do have certain blocks in place for certain areas that we experienced heavy amounts of spam. Could you private message me your IP address ad I can take a look?

The short answer is yes, iboats is blocking a lot of overseas ip addresses because of the onslaught of spammers and hackers from different countries. I face the same issue when I travel abroad. A proxy server is the way to go if you want to log in. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Glad you found a solution that works for you. I will check to see if we can remove the block for your general area.
