On-rev server blocked by ISP

[jbv]

It's even stranger this time. My client was using the same app
in 3 different cities across the country and with 3 different IPs.
At startup the app sends a request to the same url
   http://mydomain.on-rev.com
Apparently only that url was blocked by the ISP. I have another
client with the same ISP using a different app in a different city
with a different on-rev account (but on the same server) and it
wasn't blocked...
