Default OT: Browsing Problems

All I was saying is that using a browser, cloudflade doesn't block my IP
address, but if I use a command line tool to retrieve the same page, I
get the same 1020 error you did, so there are "other factors" that
cloudflare objects to, as well as IP addr.

One factor might be the UserAgent, so I was asking if you might have
installed a browser add-on to modify your UserAgent string?


Not knowingly. According to
https://www.whatismybrowser.com/detect/what-is-my-user-agent

My string is:

Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:87.0) Gecko/20100101
Firefox/87.0
