acces to the homepage blocked

in several networks i have experienced a filter blocking FTLOP because it's a page about alcohol.

so last week that happened again but after i got home i tried opening the home page and it was still blocked. since then i can't acces the homepage anymore with my computer. (it does work with my phone) all i get is
"Web Page Blocked! You have tried to access a web page which belongs to a category that is blocked. "
and the browser window has "Fortinet Secure DNS Service Portal" on it.

the forum and tasting note database still work.

the only thing i can think of is that this Fortinet stuff has somehow installed a piece of software in Firefox... i can acces FTLOP home in Safari.

deleting all cookies solved it. i'll just leave this here in case someone else encounters the same issue.

I use Firefox at home with no issues. Blocking certain sites or categories is either someone in charge of your server or your computer. Perhaps the better half is trying to tell you something ;) hahaha
