That's just not tennis (http://mkb-cc.yanksrule.co.uk//Forum/smileys/rtfm.gif)

Mind you GM went through a phase of blocking Photofucket, E Gay & Flange book etc. But it caused more problems than it solved, so aprt from the national Lottery it's now open house (http://mkb-cc.yanksrule.co.uk//Forum/smileys/up.gif)

Outside of working time of course (http://mkb-cc.yanksrule.co.uk//Forum/smileys/wink.gif)

It could be something that someone (probably ArtB (http://mkb-cc.yanksrule.co.uk//Forum/smileys/taunt.gif)) has linked to in a post. (http://mkb-cc.yanksrule.co.uk//Forum/smileys/huh.gif)

FYI the VZi forum was blocked by many work firewalls and even a warning on the Google search results for dangerous malware. It was traced to a dodgy banner ad. (http://mkb-cc.yanksrule.co.uk//Forum/smileys/security.gif)

having worked in and around IT for 15yrs, this is easily solved....(http://mkb-cc.yanksrule.co.uk//Forum/smileys/tongue.gif)

you prevent your pc/lappy from logging onto the network,
[unplug it or jiggle the software]

then call up the IT guys,
they come along and sort it for you,

you thank them with a box of choccys ,[casually produced from under the desk,]
tbh, pizza and buckets of chicken work as well if not better,
[but is dependant on location]

for everone on the help desk...(http://mkb-cc.yanksrule.co.uk//Forum/smileys/wink.gif)

a couple of days later you contact your new bessie friends, who have you in mind when they woof down a choccy...[pizza or chicken leg]

and ask if/why you cant get onto a certain website....job done

Most likely with these two around (http://mkb-cc.yanksrule.co.uk//Forum/smileys/wink.gif)

EDIT: Of course if I were you, I would have taken the credit for fixing the problem (http://mkb-cc.yanksrule.co.uk//Forum/smileys/lol.gif)
