I am not the original poster and do not use Websense. I'm simply passing the information along so perhaps someone else can confirm it and word can be spread if it's true.

Sounds like a piss-poor product.

Even if it's a web filter per se, it sounds like spyware as well.

My company employs Websense.
I was able to pull up Foxnews.com just fine.
Appears OK (Fox News, not Websense ;'}

I expect the system admin intentionally blocked this site. He/She is probably a liberal. For instance, we use SurfControl at my company and the admin has democraticunderground.com blocked but not freerepublic.com. But then again, I'm the admin.

My company uses Websense also. I just pulled up Foxnews. It depends on the admin. In our case all the cooking sites are blocked, as well E-Bay and most of the photo hosting sites. So I miss a lot of pictures when I am on Free Republic at work.
