generic question

Hi, oot question. My company has some sort of web blocking software
(websense), but I'm allowed to get into many webpages. Problem is, the
category 'Games' is (obviously) blocked.
That made me think, is there some sort of web page that I could enter a
web address and it shows that web page inside a frame or something, so
Websense would allow me to get there (since I'm not really visiting the
blocked site, but a site that shows the blocked page). Wonder if
there's some sort of page that does this, not sure if it's possible or
not just an idea

It is possible and not just an idea...Although I'm sure this is some
sort of troll or setup for something...

A web archive would probably work:

I think you're a troll inciting people by calling them trolls.

What you are looking for is at http://www.peacefire.org/

Don't use it on a corporate computer - they have the filtering software
installed for a reason. If you want to use the Internet, it's best to do
it at home.

If Websense is a proxy, that would not work: Frames are local to the
browser, and a request for a game site looks the same whether it will
end up in a frame or not.

5/10? That's insulting.

That's entirely accurrate. If they really wanted to be true control freaks
instead of cheap ones, they would hire a football player to help employees
remain focused on their tasks.
