I'll bet the access control list is on the ROUTER and this has nothing
to do with your computer.

I'm using OpenDNS -- much, much faster than the one Telus provides. I
tolerate but do not like the suggestions it makes when it doesn't find
something. How would it manage to block the sites not on my Digital Audio G4
nor on the MacBook, but only on my wife's G5 iMac, and then only when it's
booted from its own hard drive (but not today!) rather than from the
Firewire drive? It's got to have been something that was on that internal
hard drive, and since the problem's gone now, the tense of "was" is correct.
