Question for the Computer Geeks

[Hong's Pet Dog]

Working for a new company who has a much more restrictive firewall. For example, I cannot access Hornfans main website but I was able to follow a link to the forums. I was able to bookmark the forums and can access them at any time. However, I cannot do the same with Texags (can't gain access to main site or follow links to forum). Not that I'm going to break company policy but I was just curious as to why this is happening.

Thanks

The firewall is probably blocking hornfans.com and texags.com, but not forums.hornfans.com. The hornfans forums are on a different site than the main page, while on texags everything is on the same site.

Thanks UT98. I'm an Aggie but I may turn to the dark side if all I can do is read the UT boards.

It could be something with the security settings. If you have Windows Media Player 9 or better you can go into the options and click on the security tab, click on "ZONE SETTINGS" click "CUSTOM LEVEL" and change it to medium-low or low and that may work.

Hopefully the owners will follow your IP back and shut you out completely. We have enough aggy here, thank you very little.
