Default I found away around NSFW!!!

So... I started to use VNC terminal software. All traffic comming across that connection can not actually be viewd by people on the network. So I can terminal to my PC at home, open up S2KI and view all the NSFW threads I need to!

pretty clever I must say, but it's usually slow as a dog since the upload speeds are crappy for cable modem. I usually have bittorrent and kazaa running 24/7 so there is almost no upload bandwidth for me.

that is not entirely correct.

they may not be able to sniff the encrypted packets and view the data, but they still *CAN* take screenshots of your desktop and see what you're seeing. in other words, in much the same way you are doing a remote terminal to your home PC, they can do an RT to your work PC and see what you see.

do yourself a favor and surf your porn at home.

HAHAHA, only if you have such things installed in your work PC. I have admin access to my own computer so I uninstall anything like that. But, I don't surf porn at work anyway.

I agree, just do that ish at home man, it's not worth it.

If your IT staff was smart it would never get through the firewall.
