Hmm. Worked for me in Firefox and IE. Just a bit slow to generate the page.

Thats funny. It also works fine for me in my crazy linux browser (Epiphany). Although looks kind of weird having Office open.

good for hiding what you are looking at...not so great for where i work. we have content filtering and monitoring as well, so you can report on not only where a user browses, but also for how long, etc.

for me, if i want to keep stuff off of the logs i just vnc to a home pc and surf from there. :)

Another proxy that doesn't alter the page. I understand all the kids are using this in school now to get around the filters that are blocking MySpace: http://www.boxofprox.com/

Where I work, we're allowed to surf anywhere unless it's porn and I don't need to view porn at work anyway.
One of the funniest real stories that I ever heard was that at another local dealership, a salesman was busted while viewing porn and had his pants down too. Needless to say....end of job for that guy :)
