This is actually really annoying. The same thing happens with isohunt.com, at least, if I disable the scrub feature of my PF firewall I can get to isohunt.com, if I enable the scrub feature I can no longer get to isohunt.
Now, like you mentioned there seem to be quite a few sites that are doing this. It irks me that this abuse of TCP/IP happens which makes it harder to write proper firewalling software and rules.
