> It's so strange that these filtering products block all of RinkWorks instead of just the Dialectizer. While wintermute was here, he told us about how he tried to log in from a public library, and he couldn't get to RinkWorks on account of it being "pornographic."

I might feel differently when I'm a parent, because it's just too easy to *accidentally* run across stuff, never mind find it on purpose, but for me right now there is nothing more annoying than being denied access to something legitimate, especially when a few bad sites still slip through. Getting blocked because RinkWorks is allegedly "pornographic" is like a slap in the face for all my conscientious efforts to make this a good site for families.

Well, if it makes you feel any better, Rinkworks is blocked at my workplace because it comes under the websense category, "entertainment".

That still doesn't make ME feel better not being able to check the forum all day.
