due to a slimy little weasel (the old bosses' son), surfing on my machine is now not an option at work. Fortunately, I have my laptop and a dial up connection. I'm not going to show up on the firewall any more. Stupid kid wrecked it for the rest of us.

He shot himself in the foot, claiming that I was surfing all day, and not doing any work. Now that I've pointed out that we have monitoring software installed the big boss is going to hopefully see who the real slacker is. (Downside, no LJ or Amazon from work, unless it's on the laptop, too)

Now you know how I feel! At work here they use a sort of "sniffer" software to log which users are visiting what websites.. and it can block you from "inappropriate" ones, etc... it can even monitor whether or not the user is using AIM/ICQ/MSN/etc... pretty lame.

yup... hard to monitor an insecure phone line unconnected to the network, though. :)

Any idea what they are using for a firewall/monitoring tool?

Gee, I wasn't suggesting that you play outside the rules. ;) But I'm actually curious as to what you're using.
