[Will]

Well I managed 4 months without any problems browsing BD - however this week they appear to have blocked it! Facebook however isn't ?

Anyway, all I did was change the DNS servers on my local pc and hey presto I can browse. The rest of my work happens via a Citrix session to which I obviously have no access or control over settings. So fortunately my local pc without being logged onto Citrix gives me a route to the internet. Then I have to change my DNS servers back to the work ones so I can log onto my various systems - but once logged in (it's a persistent session) I can change the DNS back to my DNS servers.

How long will it take them to work it out and stop my browsing? Surely if they were blocking it via DNS lookups, if I'm using an external DNS and still have a route to the internet I shouldn't have any problems no? Obviously within my Citrix session it's an other issue, but why would I browse within Citrix?!

Do you give me another 4 months? Or is there not much more they can do?
