It seemed to me that when an ip was blocked, all registered users sharing this ip were blocked too. If this is right, maybe the creation of new accounts from people using this ip is disabled.
Anyone to confirm ?

Hi, It works for me in firefox 1.0.7 and IE 6.0, so you might be having some browser related issue?

Sorry in advance if this is posted to the wrong place.
It appears to me that the page in which to sign up to Wikipedia is broken (http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Userlogin&t
ype=signup). (As I have never used this page before its hard to say) It appears that the fields to enter a username and password are missing.
Could someone redirect me or this message to someone who may know about this.
Hmmm, when I sent my previous email I was at work. However, last night when I went home I had no problems registering. This morning when I tried again at work the page still has username and password fields missing.
At home I use Firefox 1.0.7 on Gentoo Linux, and at work Firefox 1.5 on Windows 2000.
One other piece of information that may or may not be relevant is that my companies internet address has been blocked by User:Curps as he/she believes that the address belongs to an anoymous proxy (Half the reason I wanted to sign up is so I could attempt to have this rectified).
Cheers, George.
