Unallowed Apps

according to who?

Monday, January 23, 2006 by Bichur | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk

Found out this morn, my omnipresent employer has blocked this site from my view at work due to a filtering list and "Unallowed Apps". No more browsing at high speed for what I will download later on dialup. No more finding out about glitches and reading of the fixes before it hits me at home. No more logon previews as wallpaper to confuse the herd. No more relaxing idlings.

Damn the electric fence.

How does 'unallowed apps' stop you opening a web site?

OK, if the web site IP is blocked then I understand, but it sounds more like blocking of .exe files?

And, OK, that could possibly cause a problem for SDC...

yepper. IP blocked based on a filtering list the 'unallowed' would my employers choice of words.

there's that too, plus walls. Can't download, just save as or set a background.

in fact, on the web, most right click options are blocked.

Bichur,

Perhaps offering to run cable, or do other help when needed will get you a little benefits?
