I doubt anyone cares, but...

I've just broke down and got an iPhone so I could surf no matter the internet connections around (work brings me everywhere). Dilemma I'm having now is that I forget to write down all the useful ideas I get from reading the forums, lol :wacko:

Yeah I considered getting that awhile back too when I found out my Nintendo DS's wifi wouldn't work at work..lol; but I wouldn't use it for anything else probably and last thing I need is another bill

Try an SSH tunneling (cheap shell provider?) or some other tunneling tool like Your-Freedom combined with SocksCap. Hell, you could even play WoW with both solutions...

I can tell you that Websense is a pretty robust product, and if they don't want you using it enough to spend the $$$ on websense, they'll likely just fire you if you start actively bypassing it using some form of tunnel/vpn/proxy/etc...

Yeah that's what I figured lol

There you go

How about the PSP? It has a built-in web browser.... fairly easy to make posts with too...

just don't drop it on the ground, EVER, or else the crappily-built wireless chip will brake and you will have to get it fixed or buy a new one :(

fortunately our websense isn't blocking this site or I too would be screwed (temporarily)

if they ever do shaft me that way I will write a web proxy to remotely load the pages onto my own webserver and display them there... unfortunately for you ete, my newborn is taking up too much of my time for me to put the effort in while I am not affected. sorry

I don't know about websense, but I recently set up an open source system which does the same thing at work based on http://pfsense.com/

One thing worth mentioning is that any sort of packet filtering makes it very easy to gather data about who got blocked, how many times and when. Just a tip for people suggesting webproxies and so forth.

The system I set up had no problems whatsoever blocking 99% of the webproxies I could find by googling, and a couple of guys got told to give it a rest after they clocked up a hundred or so attempts to access facebook through various of them :P

This may make me sound like the enemy, but if you knew how boring my usual grind is then you'd understand why this was a bit more fun. I wasn't so mean that I blocked forums though. Just porn, web communities, instant messaging, web-proxies and youtube.

Djarid if you ever do so please for the love of god let me know, preferably via PM or IRC so I don't miss the post ;p I'm friggin dying of boredom at work now lol
