So, I never have problems surfing either site from home, but if I use a public or work machine with IE 7, the news from digg.com is completely missing and reddit automatically goes into a "korean gaming" news section that has no articles, then you have to manually reset all the listings.
What the hell. |

Problem 1) you're using IE. |

Please do not think me such a fool. I use google Chrome. I only use IE at pc bangs. Even when I'm at work I download firefox asap. |

Reddit's been blocked at work for a while now (Gyeonggi PS), Digg's still fine. |

it is easy to use a proxy server when you are school. I often go through wired to check reddit as wired isn't blocked. |

That's the thing; it's not being fully blocked. If I use firefox or chrome, or surf from home, it's fine. But at a pc bang and at work (on IE) all the news stories just aren't there. You can access the site, but you can't really see anything. |

I've had no problems with digg. Don't use the other one, so I can't tell you if it has been blocked. |
