Same deal here... I'm at work while most of you are online, and I have a firewall that won't let me chat. By the time I get home, half of you are probably in bed because of the time difference. Oh well. As I've mentioned before, there's always AOL Instant Message. I can chat on that while I'm at work for some reason, so if anyone wants to start a chatroom there, just let me know!

My friend got into trouble for downloading an MP3 at work... His network administrator wanted to make an example of someone and he just happened to be it. The admin called Sony to rat on my friend (that's the company the song was from). These investigators showed up at his office, in front of everyone, asked him to step aside so they could look at his computer files, and found a few more songs. They said they were unsure of how they were going to pursue the case, so they kept him waiting anxiously for three months. He ended up getting an official warning, but no charges were pressed. Two other guys that worked with him were also reported by the network guy and ended up getting three years in jail. Turns out they were burning CD's and selling them for profit!

if you want to get through your firewall.. use a product like trillian. it will route through a port that is not blocked. For example port 80.. i'm going to assume if you can get to these forums your able to browse the web. so you should be able to use this product. It allows you to use all the messangers mentioned above in one window.

I agree! I use Trillian since someone here pointed it out. It has been great! You can connect to all the major chat client networks at the same time! (AIM, Yahoo, MSN, IRC, and ICQ). If you haven't already, go to www.tirllian.cc and get it!
