Dear friends i had set up a forum at www.njoyzone.co.nr or http://nivinjoy.frih.net/forum ....
Now my problem is that i am not able to access my forum or my personal site in my college hostel internet lab....(where they have banned many more sites..including Yahoo!)..
So i thought it was to do with the meta tags and i removed the meta tags on my personal site pages and i was able to access my personal site's pages.... 
But even after removing the meta tags from the overall_header.tpl file of my forum i am not able to access my forum.... 
Whenever i try to access the forum i get a message that::
So now what i am thinking is that maybe they have banned the word 'forum'....So will there be any problem if i rename the forum folder as any other name...
By the way i am able to access a test forum which i created at http://nivinjoy.frih.net/phpbb2 ..That's why i am having the doubt that whether they have banned the word "forum"...
So i request you all to help me in this sort...Hope to have a quick reply to this problem and help me out from this situation....!!! just change the folder name and change it in your database. That seems to be the problem, so just try it.

Where is it..I didn't see that...???
I will tell you a way..Please tell me whether it is correct or not...!!!
Login to phpMyAdmin
Click on Databases
Then a list of databases appears
Click on nivinjoy_forum which is my current database name...
Then click on Operations on the upper tab...
Then a window appears in which there is a box which asks Rename database to with a Go button...
Will it be enough i enter the new name of the folder that is phpbb into this space...That is i enter it as Rename database to _phpbb
Please tell me doing this is enough or not...????? 
not good
login to phpmyadmin on
http://yoursite.frih.net/phpmyadmin
In the left sidebar select your forum database
then in the same left sidebar select the config table. There might be something in front of it like phpbb_config but it's still the same config.
Then on the top of the window you'll see a list of tabs. One of them is Browse, click on that one.
Then there's a drop down menu on top and on the bottom of the page with 'Page number:' above it. Select page number 6.
Now scroll down to the last line, which should be something like this:
script_path /forum 0
now press this button: 
edit the field where it says '/forum' to the new dir.
Press the 'Go' button
And close phpmyadmin
Now you can change the dirname over ftp or direct-admin and everything should work. | rvec wrote: |

So i have to enter phpbb where it says /forum/...Right...???Oh I see it's phpBB2, my mistake.
Yeah that's the value you have to change.
the 0 doesn't really matter.

If you make that /phpbb/ it should work. I made it phpbb,then forums...But nothing seems to work...Any other option...???Every time it shows it contains a banned word...!!! and has been blocked..!!
And what about the page number (6 or 3)...?? the page number doesn't have much to do with it. That's just a difference between phpBB2 and 3.
I'm guessing they just have another word banned. Or they just look through the sourcecode and check for the word forum.
So you mean there is know way to recover my site...!! I had a hope when i was able to recover my personal site...but now i am very much disappointed...
Fate plays its role..... there probably is but I have no idea how. Any word could be banned.
you could ask the admin to unblock it and tell him the site is used for a school project.

ha ha ha...I expected this answer earlier itself from someone....You don't know him..He is such a f*****g b@&!**d.... He is such an idiot that he has even banned other college sites,so that we don't know about other college facilities...
Anyway we have decided to complain about him to our chancellor who is a very kind person and we are sure he will allow that....
And also you know,the most funny thing is that..he can access any site he wants and he is seeing blue film clips and such sites in his cabin....Some of my friends have recorded a video on their Nokia N73 mobile in which he is seen watching a blue film...Ha ha ha 
So we have got some proof with us to complain against him...
(Sorry for the harsh language...I just wanted to vent my anger on him....)If they are grab your meta tags (and other part of header) maybe you must remove word forum from this tag too:
