i think you can send files over msn, so its maybe what they are referring too.
googletalk is also blocked here at work, but just open gmail, and you can chat through the website or thats how i sdo it

Gmail and any other form of internet email has also been blocked.
Internet at work has pretty much been locked down except for a few sites.

Although, I can modify the proxy to allow me where to browse, my boss controls the logs
I found that internet access is granted, carte blanche.
Then the Admins get all pissy when the bandwidth is overrun with FaceBook, Porn and a myriad of other nasties.
Internet access is an educational process, phased in over months of user education. Only then does it become a tool.

Anyone going anywhere near pronography at work would get in some serious hot water.
It wasn't the system administrator who got upset about our clogged line, it was management who got involved. Our clients use our line, so they must get first preference.We used to be able to go online during lunch and tea breaks but that has
been prohibited and our internet activity monitored via Censornet. Then they put the printout of a summary of everyone's internet usage up on the noticeboard. Name 'em and shame 'em. I am not likely to be at the bottom at the list any time soon as I need to get to certain websites to look for tenders. I was 4th on the list last month.
Some people are still trying to use Facebook and Youtube, but I don't see that continuing for much longer.

Hahahah - I know of a company that did the same thing.
The fight for No1 spot on the list got fierce and the whole thing became a joke

I am our "admin" at work. I leave some obvious +1 site addresses in my IE browsing history. The boss doesn't know what firefox is yet
Having said that, with a bunch of chicks/car guards joining our company I've had to put a full block on Facebrick, n3ws24, bl0gspot, etc. (names edited otherwise my router blocks this post)
Agreed - default blocked sites should be any social network, news and blog sites.

But not Bulletin Boards. Grrrrrrr!
