Can you not use your own laptop with wireless net or something?

And what about Bo updates?

Hey don't feel so bad...Summer is nearly here, school holidays etc., lots of us go on a sabatical during the Summer....I think I've already started mine, LOL!!

Don't be a stranger.....or at least no stranger than you usually are...

O no!

Your work day might now be productive! I don't know what I would do all day without HHO (other than what I am paid for

)

I hope you work out a solution quickly as I like hearing out Bo and Trike and your SJ adventures.

TTFN

Not so sure about my productivity increasing though....they've now just got a VERY p155ed off employee

Ha ha ha, my ex-work banned every interesting website under the sun (some of the banned categories included 'humour' and 'general knowledge' - that's American banks for you!!) but they never cottoned on to HHO!!

You must be able to find a way round it- there was a way round all those blocks at school athough that was a while ago and I guess things have moved on. Have you tried going in through the H&H main page rather than direct to HHO?

Oh that's a good one......they really thought that through!!

Although my work did ban downloading documents from their own internal website which was a masterstroke as it was boring training and no-one wanted to do it anyway!
 
Oh Rambo, what a bummer! Don't work realise you need a work/life balance even when you're in the office, there must be something under fairness and diversity, HHO, it's a religion don't they know and they are breaching your rights!!
 
deepest sympathy rambo, I only get 60 minutes of personal use at work now due to websense
mad.gif
so try to get on here at nights, it was THE reason I got broadband at home

Rambo...set up a vpn connection to home PC then access site from there. That assumes they haven't blocked VPN.

well i'm on my pda for now...not great but better than nothing !

Can't terminal server to home as ports blocked, and can't use anon proxy either. Need to hunt down a different internal proxy that is less 'restricted'
wink.gif
 
I've got personal Broadband set up on my work PC, so I can go into the more "unacceptable" sites (nothing dirty though).

HHO not banned yet, but they ban new ones every week - this week, I couldn't check my bloomin lottery results - I mean I could be a millionaire and not even need to be at work!

I se we are thinking along the same lines. Fortunately I am the I.T. where I work. My fav sites NEVER get blocked.
