I Am Not A Drug Dealer
Author: Keith19 Feb
A friend emailed me the other day to ask if I had changed my vocation as his works firewall had blocked this website and returned the following message:
SurfControl - Access Denied
Access to* **_www.keithbond.co.uk_* has been denied by SurfControl
*_www.keithbond.co.uk_* is categorized as:* Illegal Drugs*
WTF a bit of investigation and it seems the problem post was CoReg Made Simple, as far as I knew at the time Coreg is simply an abbreviation of co-registration but now I know that Coreg is also the name of a beta-blocker used to treat heart failure and hypertension, and the net nanny Surf Control picked up on this and decided I was an illegal supplier.
Anyway just to set the record straight - I am not a drug dealer and this site has nothing to do with illegal drugs.

I always knew there was something dodgy about you!

That’s a bit worrying though - does that mean if my site has a reference to CoReg (which one of mine does), will it potentially be blocked by this, or other blockers?
you’ve got to see the funny side of it though!
lol Jules I could maybe supply you with a Lemsip but thats about all.
Phil I assume this SurfControl place sends outs its bot which finds content it thinks needs checking further and sites are checked manually, I must have been in the queue on Friday afternoon when the manual checker was in a hurry to go down the pub.
You do have to laugh Ralph, its hilarious the lengths some companies are going to to stop their employees surfing sad fact is these net nannies can usually be bypassed with a proxy.
