That's the problem because I have virtual directories (aliases), and the "directory" it's talking about is, if I understand it correctly, directory in the disk, not directory in the URL.

I have added an IP address (my home IP address and I'm testing at work) but it's not blocked. I've rebooted the whole computer but still not blocked.
