   Interesting. First, I got the "checking you are human" type words from   
   Cloudflare, then it let me through to the site.   
      
   The "Check Your IP Address. Your IP address has been auto-filled in the   
   box below. Click the "blacklist check" next to it and you'll then see   
   checkmarks on the list." Well, an IP address was indeed filled in   
   (though in faint grey!), but next to it it says CHECK IP ADDRESS rather   
   than "blacklist check"; a fairly minor matter, but doesn't fill one with   
   confidence if a site doesn't know what its own buttons have on them!   
      
   Anyway, I clicked it, and got the following (in the list of blacklists   
   below it):   
      
   green tick "IP Not Listed (Good!)" - all of them   
   red ! "IP Listed (Bad!) - none of them   
   blue ? "Blacklist Timeout Error" - none of them   
   black ? "Blacklist Offline" - none of them   
      
   so, if I understand it right: all the blacklists it checks are working   
   and responded in time, and none of them listed my IP.   
      
   So it's not that.
