Today, Wednesday December 2nd, approximately 7 a.m. in the end of the Eid holiday. Rapidshare got blocked, more specifically rapidshare.com/files/ got blocked. The choice of time is very strange and right now this is how I am feeling:
We need to have it unblocked as soon as possible, email CITC: unblock@internet.gov.sa. Faxing is also good: Continue reading Blocked in Saudi Arabia: Rapidshare! Feedburner, one of the leading RSS feed providers is experiencing some problems with Saudi Arabia users. Almost all of the podcasts on the Internet are using feedburner’s services. But now when you try to load a feed you will get the following error “Http/1.1 Service Unavailable”. This error usually happens when a server is down. I Continue reading Feedburner down for STC Afaq DSL subscribers This is not a total block but depending on your search query then google video search is blocked. A regular google video string is usually: video.google.com/videosearch?hl=en&q=searchterm Which is blocked! But moving the “hl=en” argument: video.google.com/videosearch?q=searchterm&hl=en Opens the result. This is most likely a blocking mistake and needs to be corrected (by unblocking of course). Help unblock it by filling the Continue reading Blocked in Saudi Arabia: Google video search This does not look good, Riyadh Exhibition Co’s website is giving the following error: ADODB.Recordset error ‘800a0bcd’ And just one month before Gitex Saudi Arabia 2009 which will be held in Riyadh between April 19th to April Continue reading Riyadh Exhibition’s site down before Gitex Saudi Arabia 2009?

Help unblock it by Continue reading Blocked in Saudi: Digg.com sections hydroponics: the process of growing plants in sand, gravel, or liquid, with added nutrients but without soil. Then why are the following websites blocked? www.hydroponicsonline.com Help unblock it by filling the form at internet.gov.sa, writing an email to unblock@internet.gov.sa or sending a fax to +966(1)2639290. What is the deal with STC’s m3com service? No English support, annoying interface, lots of soccer/football crap. And what’s worse: their site fails to load many times. Here’s an example: Empty html and body tags, nothing more. Hope STC fix their websites soon! In another telecommunication innovation, STC announced they offer the lowest rates … on dial-up! From 3SR per hour to 2.5SR per hour. In small print “this offer is valid for a limited period only” which is only 2 months! I am sure you are already experiencing a slow connection to the Internet. That’s because an Internet cable in the sea was cut, again. Saudi Arabia, India, Singapore, Malaysia, Egypt, Taiwan and Pakistan are effected by it the most and it will probably take until December 31st to be fixed. Read more about it at Bloomberg, Continue reading Cut cables disrupts Internet connection in Saudi Arabia and other countries I reported 5 months ago that dailymotion was blocked.
