Explaining the archive.org blocking

There is a complete explanation from Demon/Thus as to what happened at

http://groups.google.com/group/demon.service/msg/6d14597274f42ecd

In summary:

* Entries on archive.org were on the IWF list

* There was a bug in the Wayback Machine software, which Demon's blocking tickled

* Demon didn't perform any content manipulation

* Demon didn't unilaterally filter or block web.archive.org

* The Internet Archive have now fixed the bug
