Ok, I have a major problem!

Up until yesterday I could access Shiola.com at work, but now they have a new internet filter and I can't get the site! The filter is 'entertainment' anyone have any ideas how I can get around this??

What on earth will I do? I'll have to actually work otherwise and that isn't as much fun as it sounds!

You could try the easy way to bypass it:

Go to a translation site, such as google's ar altavista's, and type the address into that. It works a good 85 percent of the time.

This site makes more sense and is much funnier in Greek too.

I would not try to get around this... I am in the IT field and there are plenty of ways to track what you are doing on your PC... If you like your job or need it don't try to get around it!

Just some friendly advice!
