As with any company, there is always the upgrading of equipment, much like websites. Lately our computer department has added new servers to our system. Along with new hardware, come new restrictions on website accessibility. There will always be blocks on certain sites that have 'questionable' social value. But some sites kind of get dragged into the NO VIEW zone based solely on letter combinations. So, emails have to be sent to the administrator to add the legitimate sites. In fact, this site was deemed 'not appropriate' for viewing, until I explained my blog was work related.
In talking with the administrator, I found out that people were circumventing the system by using internet proxy passwords. These allow people to bypass the restrictions and view blocked websites. This tells me that come people have too much free time at work and might need additional work. There is a warning screen that pops up when you enter a restricted site. It is a black background with red writing and WARNING that flashes. It kind of brings to mind the robot in Lost in Space, DANGER!DANGER! Will Robinson!!
With the new servers, our system will work faster for out valued clients, which is always good. So if you need a vacation package, try www.FutureVacations.travel, or for a new job, www.job.travel.
