Yes, there is.  All known public blacklist sites provide an explanation, 
usually at the URL given in the bounce message, or indirectly via their web 
site, after you submit your IP address.

All you have to do give yourself sufficient motivation to go and investigate 
the situation by yourself, instead of sitting back and waiting for someone 
to work Miss Cleo's crystal ball, and figure out what your problem is, 
without you providing a single bit of useful information, such as what your 
actual IP address is.

Your first step is, again, to obtain the reason for the alleged 
blacklisting.  Once you've determined what the reason is, you'll be on your 
way to investigating the nature of the problem.
