    Hi I was wondering if there was a way around a firewall to acess your site. I've been blocked ata work due to shareware availablity on your site.

    it's amazing how they determine which sites are more of a security risk than others. I can search porn (not that i do) and I can get right through. I'm on logmein right now at work communicating to my home computer to type this and I can get right through. I guess I'll have to go this route until they decide to block this one also.
    Lastly I'm on a municiple internet service , several thousand computers on the system there is no way I can convince the administrator to change their policies. I'd have to be elected to an position to do that. Thanks for your help anyway Mark

    Well buggabear, there are company rules when it comes to 'conflict of interest' use of their equipment. I obvioiusly don't know your company's rules but as a general principle, don't give them an excuse to dismiss you. Never try and circumvent their policies, it's their stuff.:)
