who classified it as jokes? morons.

i suppose they thing that they're "serious" do they? because they have the "moral majority".

Yeah, ain't the "We know what's best for you" mentality great?  That's one of the reasons why people don't have any balls today, the powers that be don't want a population that THINKS.
I'm SERIOUS about Linux; are you??

Heh.  Frankly, I'm flattered.  Good to know this site has been recognized by those Nazis.  When I worked at a fascistic Wall Street securities firm (or is that redundant?), this site wasn't filtered -- even though lots of totally harmless stuff was.  I dare say, I was a bit offended . . . but I guess it was just a matter of time before we got "cataloged."

"Thats not exactly a reliable source there are anti microsoft resources that are reliable, just not FUCKMICROSOFT.COM"

What a load of bullshit that is!

ask them why, next time. I bet none of them ever even read any of the content.

That is a good question.  But I think the greater question lies in the fact that they must filter sites that contain jokes.  Are these fachists so bad that they cant allow a little humor in to a buisness environment?
Congratulations!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You have found the trillionth easily preventable bug in a Microsoft OS.  You have just won the privlage of being frustrated with an over priced, unreliable OS that makes you conform to its standards.  How does that make you feel?
