Thanks guys. I was accused at work of maliciously bypassing the firewall. Then they hit me for a little too much time on the net. In winxp, you can go to the tools/options/advance and hit the reset button which overrides the grayed out firewall setting. I read in an article a long time ago, clear cookies, clear cache, and hit reset and it can spped up your surfing experience. I had to have a meeting with my manager, Govt. site manager and two IT types. I explained what I did and why, and they tested it out and came back with I was not malicious and thank you for finding out our new pri 1 bug. WHEW good thing I was honest. I could have lost my job. Thanks for all the good thoughts!!!
Ohh, I was expecting something much worse, You would think they would put the filter in a gateway setup or something similar, I have setup websense and untangle for these purposes, No way around. Honesty is always the best policy!

John I know who it is.She has been awful nice since I beat it. Time heals all wounds & gives good timing for revenge. BUT you know I'm not like that. Karma has its own kickback. I will take the high road.

Thanks friends. I get my account back Monday. They are quick to take it away, but slow to give it back. Should I ask for a hallmark card, I unveiled your information assurance measures your welcome card. Never mind. Those govt. asshats have no sense of humor.
