Damn you bunch of intolerable people trying to ruin my procrastination efforts. Managed to get on it now (obviously), but wonder how this was flagged up in the first place.

    I don't, though some of our students do end up there.

    Could it be the ads you get, which I gather are matched to you personally?

    It'll be a blanket thing. We get these things come up where I am (I work in ICT) and it's done on categories (so for example Dr Kish is blocked because it is hosted by a gambling site).

    As far as I know we've never turned down a request for a site to be unbanned.

    I'm afraid it is not some dodgy pornographic material, it's just an awful computer game which I spent an obscene amount of money on.

    Worse, it's a Belgian Palace fan. Walks around with a Benteke shirt on all the time.

    It's blocked again. Can only get on by using google chrome's 'incognito' function. No idea why that would work, but it makes me feel dirty as I only use that to look at porn normally.

    Wish it would get blocked on mine. Work's depressing enough as it is.

    One day I will buy the Mrs. a gift in Incognito Mode and not want her to see the search history, as it so innocently suggests.

    Until then, I'm scared that if I used Incognito outside the house it might set off some kind of 'Pavlov's Dog' reaction.

    Does that mean you also have an abnormal way of looking at porn?

    I'll have to bear this in mind as I minimise 'quite a bit'.
