ECN must have a new feature: software categorization. The OP said this
message comes up:
Forbidden, this page
(http://ndiswrapper.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php/List) is categorized
as: Shareware/Freeware.
That's gotta be SurfControl or something similar. The reason it's
different on a Windows box is that SurfControl can do custom per-IP or
per-user rules.
