Goingforburgundy Posted November 21, 2011 Share Posted November 21, 2011 Please do not make threads with the word "game" in the title, so people like myself with work internet blocks against games can participate in the threads while we are distracted by the great people here on ES. A simple change to the title from Game to GME GM or of the like would be much appreciated by others. GFB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DCsportsfan53 Posted November 21, 2011 Share Posted November 21, 2011 I use AOL 9.0 to get around the work block. Because the browser is part of the AOL program, once your logged on the firewall is unable to track which sites you're using. It's free, too.

chipwhich Posted November 21, 2011 Share Posted November 21, 2011 Can't you just hit extremeskins through a proxy server since you are breaking work rules anyway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueinBuf Posted November 21, 2011 Share Posted November 21, 2011 Can't you just hit extremeskins through a proxy server since you are breaking work rules anyway He never said browsing the internet was against the rules. Just game type websites were, my job has a similar policy but they actually block sites, not just keywords. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We block sites too but if "game" is in the URL than it instantly gets blocked Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes hence the use of a proxy server to bypass the rules I am sure his employer doesn't want him on extremeskins, but maybe he can ask Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spjunkies Posted November 21, 2011 Share Posted November 21, 2011 The filter at my job blocks anything to do with games so that means the IGN Boards are a no go for me I'm actually surprised I can get to a site called "extremeskins" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kosher Ham Posted November 21, 2011 Share Posted November 21, 2011 Just curious, but do you have any idea why that word would be blocked ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corcaigh Posted November 21, 2011 Share Posted November 21, 2011 AOL has a built in proxy which can be used to bypass IP restrictions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
