Sorry for that, we are currently testing DNSBL as a serverside countermeasure against votebots.
The IP-Address you had is listed on Abuseat because it is "showing signs of being infected with a spam sending trojan, malicious link or some other form of botnet"
That's why you weren't able to call or participate in votes.

DNSBL will probably be disabled until this evening, however I recommend you to check the computers on your network using a good malware scanner.

If your ISP gives dynamic IPs that's pretty much useless, lots of IP addresses will be banned for random reasons.

Abuseat gives decent information about what malware is active and when the last suspicious activity was. Even if the IP is dynamic, the timestamp reveals that no one else could have used the IP in that time.
