I installed httpbl on one of my sites yesterday. However, my ISP IP address was immediately put on the graylist. I reduced the graylist threshold to zero to disable graylisting. Within a short time the ISP IP address was blacklisted. This prevented me from accessing my site except via my server administration panel and via FTP. I took the rather drastic action of deleting the Drupal module httpbl module via FTP and dropping the MySQL tables via phpMyAdmin.
I can only presume that HoneyPot incorrectly interpreted the frequent communications between my server and my ISP as spamming or harvesting. I have other administrators of my sites and they could experience the same problem.
For the time being I have no option but to uninstall httpbl. I would appreciate help in overcoming the problem.

The http:BL module does no reporting whatsoever to Project Honeypot, which means that you can't get blacklisted because of the use of the module.
I'd like to advise you to check out http://www.projecthoneypot.org/search_ip.php with your IP address to see where the blacklist status is coming from. Furthermore you could contact Project Honeypot with a request to remove your blacklist status.

As previously stated, http:BL has no part in the blacklisting. Check out the website posted, and see where the blacklist is coming from. For now, Status: 'Closed'.
Feel free to reopen the ticket if something comes up.
