  1. Hello,

    I'm developing a site that will need to process RSS periodically from other sites, Does you server has disabled internet access by security? Can I make HTTP requests to other sites?

    Thanks,
    Braullio

    We do not block port 80 traffic from our server. You should be able to connect to a remote site through port 80.

  3. Thanks,

    So I assume I can use ad sense services, and connect to other sites to download RSS Feeds.

    I was concerned about that, because some IIS server use to have internet access blocked as a security restriction.

    Thanks again. Regards
    Braulio
