Then our best moment was sending silly msgs to each other on some net msg program, then my mate forgot to type in my username whilst sending FANNNY x1000 times going mad with his reutrn key. Only went to every PC on the netwrok, and everytime someone clikced 'OK' the next one came up :D:D

Brings back memories that does.

When I was at college they put us in a room with computers that had little or no security policies. Anyway I was messing around with net send, and sent a message to this person across the room, and then he sent one back to me and then one to another person. Soon everyone was sending messages to each other until someone sent out a message to the entire domain, and then someone else started to broadcast their messages.

It wasn't until the next day we found out that the messages were seen in several different colleges/sites and part of the local learn direct centre. I think there were coming close to 1000 messages sent within a couple of hours.

You may find it has nothing to do with your admin. The software more than likely just scans visited sites and blocks them if they contain keys word.

But no doubt its cooler to blame the dumb network admin.

baah the colledge's network administrator has blocked this site and plenty others , had to resort to pinging the site and loading it from the ip. these people are stupid tbh, whats this site got that is wrong, no p04n or anything like that.

Computer forum. Not related to study. Now go back to college and study hard and stop moaning that you can't do what you want all the while. It's a hard world out there, stop crying.

I'm getting around my work's proxy by running firefox portable off a usb drive, with the gladder add-on. You can just go into the options and enter in a list of websites. then when it sees you're visiting one of these, it routes it by a proxy.
Though I wouldn't trust it with any passwords, so you'd be kinda stuffed if you wanted to post. Unless you change the password first, or something.

Thank your luck stars you are not on my network. I'd make it my mission to locate the source of the traffic and get the appropriate people to start disciplinary procedures. Go read the Computer Misuse Act.

Nothing wrong with a bit of downtime at work but breaking the law is a different kettle of fish.

Maybe the admin seen your appaling English and decided that your time in school would be better spent studying rather than frittering it away on computing forums.

Agreed. Problem with the young 'uns of today is they expect the world to be handed to them on a plate and don't understand that they must put in as much as they get out. Hence you get the cry baby posts when they can't do what they want because authorities have placed barriers in their way.

Go to school mess about and become a top paid professional seems to be how most kids think it is done.

I hope you network admin finds the post. Most network admins in education aren't fools just don't have any budget to play with and have constraints put on them in regards to using open source software.

Glad i work in industry where money can be found if needed :)

Not always - we were told that we were the first in the country to get a pair of ServerIron GTC's, stunning bits of kit and not bad for a uni, but then we went and spoilt it by putting in a procurve network :mad: Actually for the price point, HP switches are good with the lifetime warranty, but the dodgy firmware revisions for the 5412's have caused me no end of pain..

Yes! 5000 series procurve chassis and bad firmware have caused me a load of pain too in the past.

Mind you so has Cisco. This is why I don't do switches anymore and leave that to the people who enjoy all that config pain.

Uni's aren't really the same though. Some have rather large budgets.

Heh, back when I was in school we used to play AvP, GTA2, HL1 and others across the network with the admins during lunch and break times (and some IT lessons if we had nothing to do). My college had WebSense, but that didn't stop me :D
