help - internet blocked with "scrubit" dns

[saun-fam]

Hi all - we're new to HK and are trying to use bittorrent - the wife needs to get her "So you think you can dance" fix.

The problem we are running into is that some sites are blocked by "Scrubit", and internet filtering service that operates as a substitute DNS server. We are using netvigator and a wireless router. I tried manually setting DNS servers through the router config and on the local computer settings - but neither of these did the trick, and to be honest, I don't fully understand this anyway. Any more tech-savvy folks out there that can help us out?

Netvigator doesn't impose any filtering that I am aware of. I don't understand why "Scrubit" should be involved at all. Just use the Netvigator default settings and you should be able to get anything you want.

You are complaining that a service that "scrubs out the bad stuff" actually works?

What's the point of clean internet ALL the time?

I think we figured it out - we were subletting and the landlord subscribed to scrubit - thanks to replies
