Hi Christian,

Is your address one of the 3 below (all MSFT addresses, according to whois):

	    40.69.96.43
	    52.170.100.128
	    13.70.140.143

On 10 October, each of the addresses above did more than 100k accesses to
htmlized drafts and RFCs, many of which weren't in the cache and had to be
re-generated.  As the server was already heavily loaded from a distributed
unlabelled crawler, I blocked those 3 at the time.

If your client address(es) are not among the ones above, please provide the
failing addresses, and I'll see what I can find.

Regards,

	Henrik
