Re: Help with Windows XP, Internet and Technology

I love GUG ! I have actually had my account for a long time but only recently paid for the private forums. I don't get online as much as I'd like, lol, I've been kept busy at work here at H&R Block.

HELLO

i just joined. came across this site looking for info on player-burners.
While i was reading some very interesting stuff, i saw where you guys were
telling kids how to get around the firewalls on school computers to get to you tube and other 3rd party sites. I taught school for years, and believe me they don't need help in that dept. You need to be telling administration how to keep them from getting through. I don't want my grandchildren in those sites without supervision, it's way to dangerous. That being said you have some great stuff on this site.
