Eric-
Is your connectivity via satellite or is it terrestrial-based? If it
is satellite, then I don't think the Afghani government has much
control over what traverses your link via the satellite. Satellite
providers have a lot of gear in place to control application
performance, caching, etc - as well as block applications that can jam
up the limited "pipe" through the bird.
In any case, I would check with your provider and see if they are
doing any filtering, transparent proxying, etc. Let me know if you
need any USA-based testing help.
