What cool sites are unblocked at your school?

Install a game on your USB stick, play it from there. I played Football Manager throughout school when I get lazy. Probably why I'm a waster, hey ho.

I remember being in school and the IT manager blocked applications based on file names. We used to just rename game like C&C to Notepad.exe and it'd run. Amateur level network management.

errrr hxf used to work but then they put a filter on all gaming and forums lol if you google a game long enough you'll find a working website. YouTube only works during lesson times not at lunch lol obv no twitter tumblr or fb

All of them are. He saw me playing it once and quizzed me how. It's just an executable. He then blocked all .exe's from running. Hilarity ensued. I think it's amazing how these people get jobs.

at school nearly everything was blocked, it really annoying if you were trying to research something but if it had a 'rude word' on the webpage like sex it would be blocked, at my college now we get free wifi and it was only really facebook twitter etc that was blocked but they've recently blocked the app store now as everyone just abused it to download stuff onto there phones.

Basically everything was blocked at my old school (only been at this one about 7 months) except this one games site called homeworktasks.com or something. I assume it only got through because the IT technician never checked it because they thought a teacher had set the work.
