Yeah, right

I'm used to them now, anyway. Everytime patrick visits the office I'm reminded of the fact that I'm about the shorted person there!

Sounds like the school I went to. It was a private Christian college that used N2H2/Bess and they had the filter cranked as high as it would go. It basically blocked every cool site on the internet except slashdot and google.

I'm really surprised Slashdot got through, with all their trolls and goatse.cx posters.

Actually, sometimes the slashdot comments didn't get through...I only read the front page anyway.

You know what it might be though? Alot of times, ISP's use the same IP addresses for porn sites and regular sites, and differentiate using virtual hosting..

i'm not sure how much control is over the riocar.org site, but maybe it's ISP also hosts porn sites on that same IP range?

Not that I can see from a quick check of the hosts on that IP. I'll wait a week and see if the filter company responds, if not, I'll submit it for review again.

edit: A quick check of N2H2.com shows actually that they took it out of their database already. So, it should be open to the origional poster at school soon.
