Would you happen to know what does Arfcom use this IP address for? We just blocked all cloudflair IPs, and this completely screwed up my Arfcom formating.

If it's cloudflare, some shared libraries. (It looks like a cloudflare IP.) Fortunately we are moving off cloudflare to our own CDN, some of the files are already there and it's on the list to move the rest. I'll see how quickly we can do it. (Maybe even today if things are setup properly.)

Interested in why you are blocking all sites hosted by cloudflair

Thanks, I used my powers as sysadmin to whitelist that IP, but if anybody asks why, I'm going to have a hard time justifying it.

We block movie sites, and there are a couple who use cloudflair and bounce around the entire range of ips.(well, one block of them, anyway)
There are more elegant solutions, but I've just been too busy to implement them; I'll fine tune the filter as soon as I get the time.

We have most of the CDN stuff finished, so next update will remove the cloudflare files. Not ETA though!

As long as nobody looks at the firewall rules, everything will be fine.
