    My heart stopped beating here for a couple of minutes. Started work computer logged in and of course went straight onto boards.ie
    got "The URL www.boards .ie which you tried to visit was categorised as social-networking and has been blocked in accordance with company policy."
    After a couple of attempts I restarted and I'm in.. if they block boards I'm going out sick on stress leave

    Were you able to get on to other sites? Probably a service stopped on a server or a server being restarted.

    First thing to do if a site you usually have access to us blocked is to check if Google is working :P

    Seriously if boards gets blocked , I don't know what I will do with myself it was the reason I requested a second screen (I told them is was for working on multiple spread sheets )

    I'm liking the cut of your jib. :)

    Rejoice in the awareness of feeling stupid, for that’s how you end up learning new things. If you’re not aware you’re stupid, you probably are.

    It's possible to do both.

    I have someone remotely logged on to a server here, and I'm running scripts on another server and I'm also boardsing.

    Go me for multitasking.
