Bluecoat has reclassified.   I'm guessing it works for blur911 now.

Sitelock which we are paying big bucks to claims we are clean and have no viruses but it seems like we have more people claiming we do then ever before.   Very odd.

Strange! So far this week my company's websense blocked me from going to several sites that were all work related and in one case i had to get the vendor to confirm a training course for me because i was blocked from doing it myself.  It even blocked out the Red Cross site when i tried to make a donation.  It has never blocked Autos.ca.... :-\ :popo:

Why does Autos continue to use Websense if it causes so many problems? Is the goal to slowly ween us off before the site is finally gone.  ;D

autos doesn't use websense

It is your company that is using websense as a filter for bad websites (viruses and porn).

Looks like they FINALLY updated their system!  Awesome we are back.

Forum works for me but not the main Autos.ca front page or reviews.  It just sits there saying:  waiting for Autos.ca.

Now I'm getting the same thing.   :(  Can't read the reviews from my work computer.

Still working from my work cpu, and I was one of the blocked ones a couple weeks ago. I hope I don't get blocked again, I might actually have to work!
