cotejb Posted December 28, 2005 Share Posted December 28, 2005 My job is very lenient on internet usage and will let you use the internet for personal use throughout the day as long as it doesn't interfere with your productivity. Well a few weeks ago I was on Gottadeal and entering contests and the IT guy comes in my office asking what girldirector.com is. I tell him I have no clue. That kinda frieked me out b/c they thought I was looking at porn at work. Well today I was on Gottadeal at work and a lady in IT who I'm friends with emails me and says whatever site I am on is coming up on the firewall as girldirector.com and asks me to please exit the site. I'm not sure if it is the actual gottadeal site, but the only other two sites I was on at that time frame was the papermate contest and the subway contest. Whatever it was, I am no longer allowed to view Gottadeal at work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cotejb Posted December 28, 2005 Author Share Posted December 28, 2005 It was something like a for sale addy in English for Russia or something but it had porn words on the site too like sex and hot girls, etc..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cotejb Posted December 29, 2005 Author Share Posted December 29, 2005 I've showed them the site but its just b/c of what comes up... I don't know if that site is some type of spyware or what since I don't really know how that works. What I don't understand is the bad site doesn't even come up on my actual computer. It just comes up under their firewall as a blocked site. But I guess since I work for the state they don't want to take any chances (hackers, viruses, etc.) I will just have to be bored to death until I get home and finally talk my DH into letting me on the computer.

Aaron Posted December 31, 2005 Share Posted December 31, 2005 girldirector.com isn't even a site. It's just some weird ad based sity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ihsteven Posted December 31, 2005 Share Posted December 31, 2005 I would run a spyware check on your computer though. Then explain that GD is a site that probably will offer your co-workers, IT guys so nice deals on electronics, and the like. Then they will open it faster than you can say firewall. -Steven Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
