Can somebody enlighted me why my comment shows up only when I am logged into my account? It doesn't show when I am logged out or when I am logged in from another account. Is this a bug, or, what?

I am posting here because I don't know where else to post.
I boot-time scanned my entire computer which ruled out virus infestation. Since I have only recently started using this IP address (4 months), I am guessing that the person using this IP address before me may have either been a spammer or may have had an infected system. I don't think it is because I goofed up in some way.
So will this IP be blocked from HN for eternity? Shouldn't HN take into consideration that my account from which the comment was posted is older than a year with frequent activity throughout? (Mainly upvotes on submissions and comments) -and without any history of spamming or any wrongdoing?
I would very much like to participate in the HN community. I request you to allow this IP address.
