Site block due to Uncatagorized

Just installed RavenNuke 2.20.01 (went smooth) and one of my friend is unable to reach the website from his place of work. According to the information he was told is that our site is Uncatagorized. I did some searching on the forums and I even located the meta.php file under includes. I am just not sure where or what I need to edit in order to make my site Categorized.

I take it the "keywords" is where I add keywords for my particular site and search engines pick them up. Could some one point me in the right direction?

Thank You

Your site is probably blocked by his employers firewall and there probably isn't much you can do about it.
You might want to ask him to check exactly what they mean by 'uncategorized' - I have a feeling they are talking about one of the many online services that are used to identify non-adult content like ICRA.

Uncategorized means that the company's web filter (e.g. Websense) doesn't know how to categorize the site, so it plays it safe by blocking it.

It has nothing to do with your keywords, and even if your site is listed in public sites like DMOZ, if the filter doesn't recognize it, the only way around it is to request that the site be categorized by the filter (if they even process requests).
