Did someone turn on the parental control thing in IE for you? (Tools, Internet Options, Content)

if there is a password, there are ways of...making that go away...

Is it a piece of software installed? EX: Netnanny
Did they use perentel controls in IE?
Is it a proxy server? (most likely)

What a lot of places do is have all internet in a office connect to one or two reutors/hubs/server whaterver. Then from there to the internet. Then they install a filter such as N2H2 Bess. Only way around a filter like this is daisy chaining it.

They are doing it on the proxy server or at the firewall. There is nothing you can do about it at work. And if they have them set up right, they are also blocking the web proxy servers.

They are likely using something like websense to do it.
