Cool. Some new ports and websites for me to block from the end users. Course, us IT guys can go wherever we want.

Yup. I wonder how many people know that their IT department often employs devices that inspect every single incoming and outgoing packet. :)

I used to do work as the IT administrator for a company in London and found as long as you keep a good set of firewall rules no one will compromise your security.

I can't believe that in this top ten no one mentioned renaming file extensions and compression as ways of getting the files you want in work.......come on, these old tricks still work today!!

Can you block outgoing port 443? Probably not. That's what I use to run an SSH tunnel with proxy forwarding from work to my home network, where it is NATted to port 22 on my Unix box. Then I adjust Firefox so that not just http and https are proxied, but DNS lookups too. Been doing this for a couple of years with no problems at all. I can go to any web site I want in perfect encrypted secrecy.

Stinky cheese might somehow appear in your air conditioning vent.
