Important Note: It is possible to block access to yourself accidentally by using this method. Be sure to allow access via your IP otherwise you will be blocked as well. You can find out your current IP address by visiting the What is your IP? page. If you accidentally block yourself, please contact HostGator via live chat or telephone. You will need to confirm your identity ("verify your account") before we can unblock your IP.
