Consider the other side of the equation. We installed a system in a customer's braches, each system had a server and these were linked via the customer's IT network. Wasn't long before the night shift discovered that the servers were nothing more than PCs with a gateway to www - and while the cats were away.........
The result was a megatrash of the whole network, cost thousands to put right and in addition lost the customer about one weeks revenue.
I am sure that all PPRuners are responsible types who would not dream of compromising their employers networks - but how about the others?
Message is learn to live with it or get one of those Bilberry jobs (Blueberry? Burberry?)
