Well our Surfwatch continues to behave strangely. Thought you all might find the latest interesting. Until today it had not blocked any sites- of course none of us search "those" kind of sites BUT today I was going to search the business directories and it blocked the Chamber of Commerce, Business directory, Big Book, Yellow Pages and this is my fav - Fed Ex tracking at www.search.com -A-Z list - Business. Guess it blocked Fed Ex because it has an x in the title??:-) Wierd but true. Really brought censorship home when I kept clicking on the sites and it was blocking them all. Seemed pretty indiscriminate, although I suppose there could be "sex" related sites in these directories...after all they are listed in the Yellow Pages of the phone book in each of our students' homes! Don't think thier parents are going to throw out the phone book. Margaret Hunt Soon to be gradiate of USC-CLIS-Hurrah!! mchunt@mindspring.com Floyd Graham Elementary Hephzibah, GA(15 mi.
