    Can't access Got|Apex from work connection

    I'm on a T1 at work and I'm sure that this site isn't firewalled since it doesn't give me a big WARNING sign...

    But when I try to access from work, it says that "A technical problem has occured with the database" and that an email has been sent.

    Anybody know why?

    I had access to it only a few months ago...

    Tsk tsk tsk...
    You is wasting work time... you bad employee...
    Go to the boss's office imediately...

    No, i'm not sure on that, but i know at my friends work, they check on websites that have the most time spent on them a month and one by one, they block them to help improve productivity. The thing is, if you leave your computer on on a website, you can rig the ballot. So my friend would leave like CNN or other sites that he didn't actually read on all the time so that he could gurantee he wouldn't lose his favorite page... Aww the sillyness of governments.

    That's a message from a firewall or a proxy server - it's either being blocked, or the cache on the proxy needs to be reset. Only the IT guys can tell you for sure.

    AH HA! I'm posting from work!

    For some reason, I can't get on gotapex.com, but I came on through apexdeals.com and then here I am!

    So what's up with that? I can get on through gotapex at home, but not at work?

    Jeffbx: kevs probably hasn't asked the IT dept because we're the types that would say GET TO WORK you slacker!

    You don't need Got|Apex? to do your job so get outta here!
