Hey, welcome to the party. Iran has been blocking access to large swaths of the Internet for years. It's kind of what one would expect from an autocratic police state.

How Iran filters the Internet (http://www.globalvoicesonline.org/2005/06/21/how-iran-filters-the-internet/)

It's OK, though. It benefits the U.S. economy. The Iranian government licenses SmartFilter from US-based Secure Computing. Thank god for for free enterprise.

Whoa unto the poor butchered herds!
