There's a whitelist which allows access to your common sites, such as google.
Unfortunately for a majority of the NTG, the whitelist does not contain any of the sites that google will return in its search results :P

Doesn't work for forums/realtime sites, but it works for damn near everything else.

Nah, I was happily browsing the forum, even though it has 'forum' as part of the URL....

If it IS DNS and not IP based, try this URL :

thats a bug, it actually logs you in, just click on a forum or anything else and it will update your login status. happens to me sometimes.

nope, tried that already.
Post 23
Ah - yes... the cookie is set to gamers-underground.com
Let me see if I can fix that.
EDIT: Nope. You could always edit the cookie and replace .gamers-underground.com with .infoaddict.net (manually it seems) - not sure mate.
Post 24
I might try copying my cookies file from home and editing that, all the cookies I can find here are .infoaddict already.
Apparently it's harder than I thought to get around those bastards.
Thanks for the effort though, I can read the forums now anyways.
Post 25
Are they blocking port 3389??
Perhaps you guys will have to set up your routers and RDP to home to browse your internets...... Hehehe maybe you could even game over RDP????? (but only if solitaire was your thing...)
Post 26
DirectX doesn't work too good with RDP (read: not at all). works through VNC tho.

i can write a CF script that sits on the our servers and reads in a url you type into it, updating the links in it so they will use the same procedure... pretty sure our servers are on the whitelist... =)
