Playing eq at work

[fieni]

You can clean whatever you want on your PC, accept the risk if your company have a policy regarding the use of corporate ressources, as they will have a way to detect such use.

Not lot of company want to take the time to enforce such policy, 'cause time is money, but some like to make some one time check for the 'example'.

First line is your default gateway, prolly passed to you by DHCP server.
Second is your in-house router.
Third is your ISP router.
Starting with the third line and below it is all external routing and not in control of your IT people.
You are fine, just clean up cache, etc and you can troll away =D

[fieni]

well, it's easy to have a transparent proxy...

[Leopa Panthera]

MWAH!!

No proxy! TY!

[CorpsedAgain]

clean out cache, history, etc. That will do it. Unless your work uses a proxy server for outgoing connections. If they do then they can log where you go. That is what we do where I work, but to go thru the logs every day would be really time consuming and pointless. Bottom line is if the peeps in your IT department like you, then they will overlook anything you do that is not harmful to network. But if they dislike you, then you should stick to work related things. Not to say they will tell your supervisor about where you are going, but you never know. I, personally, don't care where people go, I dont check logs unless asked to, and am lazy in general. You will find most IT ppl are the same way =D

If you use IE and want to see if your work is using proxy then click "Tools" at top of browser, Select "Internet Options" from pull down menu, Click the "Connections" tab, Click the "LAN Settings..." button at bottom of window, Look at bottom pane and see if the box is checked for Use Proxy Server. If not, then I wouldnt even worry about it.

TY! ">

You won't see the IP of a transparent proxy on a trace route.

just as an example, look at sunscreen, completly transparent firewall: pluged on the path of your network and it doesn't have/need IP addresses. It acts as a bridge. Can't see it on a traceroute, but it can log everything.

Other: look at NFR

Any BSD/Linux bos can be easily config for that.

and no, I don't fake orgasm

[CorpsedAgain]

lol, I wouldnt worry about it. Your boss could also tap into your isp pipeline and intercept your signal and buy million dollar machines to decipher the data and find out that you did indeed lookup the vcc forum or walkers website. I will bet my right arm that you do not have a transparent proxy or anything of the sort. fieni is correct about the traceroute, but nobody uses them unless your company deals with sensitive information or is a government job or something like that. So yw, and GL. Post if there is a transparent proxy and you get into trouble and I will get out the hacksaw

My two cents. . .

I play EQ at work sometimes. I am the IT Manager here and I am lucky enough to have a KVM my laptop is running all work related stuff and then I have another PC that runs EQ. I installed a modem in that box and that way I can get around the proxy (I also am the NETWORK ADMIN so I could open the ports myself but) as far as tracing your activity there are tons of different software packages and simply deleting these files from your PC isn't enough. I have 2 servers here that trace all activity that my end users are doing on the Internet so even if they delete their cache and such I have a record. We have this because our employees could sell data to our competitors so your company may not do this. There is no safe way to play but I built one of those buzzer thingys so when someone walks by my office it dings in here and I then have enough time to switch, I have died countless times doing that though. Just be careful playing at work. That's my two cents. I never help do I?

What kind of KVM you got? Just curious because I have a Belkin and it *Beeps* when I switch. Its nice because I just hit "Scroll Lock" 2X then the up key and it switches but that beeping is annoying.

[Spazz]

I have a belkin as well you can disable the beeping by opening the KVM up and covering the little speaker with electrical tape. If you wanted.
