Bing search requrning errors
BrianWatson, how did you find out that Bing was blocking your IP? We have the same issue using a specific VPN gateway in our US South zone. Did you submit anything to Microsoft?
Thanks!

DuncanF1 quite easily. Whenever I launched Bing in my browser I was unable to search for anything!
My problem arose when I ran a program that looped through my keywords and looked up in the leading search engines. The position found was then recorded. This was to help me see what needed more SEO attention and possible AdWords activity. Unfortunately running a large number of searches in a short period caused Bing to deny access from my IP address. I could prove this was so by accessing via a VPN, turning back to my own IP and comparing results. I continued my research by conducting the searched via VPN's and my IP soon has access restored.
