    The folks at work know EVERY keystroke too. Not just in house email, but logging on to your own email from work...what you type, they can see if they choose to look.

    As a good friend used to say, "Have fun, but pay attention."

    Mah heart bleeds for ye...

    I remember having those wars before like being in the Army and not being able to access gun sites. Think about it.

    I had some fun with it though, while working in the oil and gas industry our biggest customer was S&M Engineering Inc. Finally the IT guy got tired of me screaming at him, and I did every time WEBSENSE told me that S&M was a sex site. I finally got a straight hookup to the internet which is why I get to visit X-marks during daylight hours.

    Two things: always remember that the internet was designed to be a wide open system, accessible from anyway. security is not meant to be a part of it. anybody in the world can see what you are doing if they have the right equipment.
    track posts on this site alone and you will see most are done through work hours. there's all sorts of exceptions but most are being paid to be doing something else while visiting here.

    LOL! Same thing yesterday for me. Out of curiosity I've been checking various links to see what is and isn't blocked and I clicked on the Clan Keith web site. Web "Sense" blocked me saying I couldn't look at sex sites. Always knew those folks were a randy bunch! Then the girl across from me yells out, "I know they ain't done blocked my Beyonce site!" You just gotta laugh.

    Yeah, I recall not being able to get on the superbowl website at my last job because the Roman numerals contained "XXX"
