AOL autoblocks   Youre being affected by what are known as autoblocks  Any autoblock block message you see is not intended for you but rather for another person who happened to use the same IP address or ISP as you  Autoblocks are a particularly severe problem for AOL users due to the way that Wikipedias software handles blocking and the way that AOL makes all users vandals and nonvandals alike share the same set of IP addresses  Some AOL vandals even intentionally take advantage of this to engage in denial of service attacks against their fellow AOL users  Unfortunately theres nothing that administrators like myself can do about this it may happen again in the future  At some point developers might be able to modify Wikipedia software to prevent this problem or AOL might change their policies to allow Wikipedia to more effectively filter out vandals using AOL but at the moment there is no solution to this problem  If by any chance you also have an additional nonAOL Internet account the autoblocking problem should be much improved
