Get this: my company locks down acess to everything except a list of pre-approved sites. The proxy blocks everything else. You can get additional sites added, but you have to fill out a request form and it takes several days. I often go home at lunch to search for technical information I need and then mail it to myself at work so I can have it the same day. Even with being so tightly locked down, my boss gets an automated e-mail every week (and I get a copy too) showing what sites I've visited and how many bytes were transferred from each. I don't really mind that, because I'm not about to go anywhere inappropriate or non-work-related. It would be nice to access the sites I need to do my job more quickly though.
