Smiles noted. I don't actually get to post much from work because I'm generally too busy but as it is I can't even dip in at quiet moments now...

The systems manager isn't even based in the same County I work in. And they enabled java to allow staff to use the internet correctly, we are supposed to avoid non-trustworthy sites.
Bah!

Suing your employers for not providing an environment where you can slack with impunity? That wouldn't even happen in America.

Its only up to restricted and nothing majorly secret is there. And somehow, no I don't think I'm goinhg to ask my boss to make a fuss over the fact that 'Poly insists on Britney pop-ups.

I understand the health and retirement packages are pretty good too.
Anyway, just to stay on-topic, could you just click elsewhere on the screen the moment the popups appear and right-click kill them on the taskbar to prevent office passersby noticing?
Yes, it's lame, but it's the best I can think of under the circumstances you describe.

I delete the history file when I go home from work every day. You could try the same. If the IT people are running a realtime log, then that won't work though...

I am just glad those snow-something pop-ups are gone (maybe its somehting I did). Not long enough, everytime I switched between screens i got a new pop-up. It was frustrating and kept bringing Explorer down.

A Britney popup? All I get are gambling ads. That's hardly fair.

Yeah, I'm sure a government department will allow their staff to bring in any computers they want to work.

Oh, come on Taz, tell them the truth: tell them that you're visiting a site which covers the Civilization series of games, and it has a nice community and lots of good people whom you enjoy talking to, and that unfortunately when you access this site you always get a Britney pop-up, although you have no idea of what Britney and civilization have to do with each other.
They'll think you're just a harmless geek and they'll leave you alone.
