Is Websense filtering your access to eng-tips?

Is Websense filtering your access to eng-tips?

(OP)
My company's internet filter, Websense, denied access to eng-tips for a few weeks about a year ago.  Now this appears to be the case again.  Is this happening to everyone with Websense or is it just my company?

 

RE: Is Websense filtering your access to eng-tips?

Yes, it started a couple of weeks ago here. Had to ask them to white list it.  

RE: Is Websense filtering your access to eng-tips?

No direct experience with websense, but I'll bet they can add and delete sites at will, down to the individual webpage or word.

(OP)
I know sites can be added or removed by administrators but there is a central database and Eng-tips seems to be added and removed from it on a semi-regular basis.  I've never seen Tek-tips added to it, however.
