One sure to beat the smart filter at work

Mythbusters is a hoot every time, Gumball 3000 is cool too.

TV Shows, cartoons etc

I got to the link and the lists of videos, but when I click on the video it then blocks as "streaming media"

SKI: I got this interesting message when clicking on yours.

Reason:
The Websense category "Proxy Avoidance" is filtered.

yeah, we get it too, somebody gave us up on the "vtunnel" to the IT department. Hell, it blocked LR's turbo944 board the other day.

There has to be some way to get around the streaming media block.

All I can do is try to find sites that allow you to "right click/save as" then I can download and play.

Being an IT guy, here's my take on this:

1. If you stumble across a site that is blocked at work - it's no biggie - worst case, you'll get your hand slapped for goofing off.

2. If you use a website to get around the website filters, that may just get you fired, since it is considered to be a blatant attempt to view something that your company has deemed inappropriate. I have seen this happen.

Tread lightly, I always say...

I 2nd that. My company (and my own company) would bounce you out of your seat very quickly if either found out you went around a filter.

Since when did our workforce become so uproductive? Leave the screw off time at home and be productive at work. (unless your job is to screw off on the internet, and if so, good luck to you)
