One source of continuing frustration for me is that I can't access the forums at work

My network is behind a firewall, and when I try to go to the KGB site, I get a page saying that this site is classified as MATURE, GAMES, so I am SOL until I get home.

Is this something that we have defined for the site so as to make search engines easier to classify us? If so, can we change or eliminate that classification to keep the IT Nazi's from blocking access to the site?

Thanks!

THere is a very simple way around it( and a less simple ways around it depending your skill and setup).

Very Simple way: If you have WindowsXP PRO or MCE at home, and fast enough connection, you can use remotedesktop to by pass the firewall. Linux desktop (MAC OSX too I believe, but I do not have one to verify) with XWindows can do simular with proggie like XWin32 to redirect your X-Windows Desktop.

Then there are ssh tunnels, and other ways that get into more black magic then I wish to go into here hehe.
