My local library:

http://www.daytonmetrolibrary.org

is currently blocking this site, because they say that you offer sexually-explicit images on the site.

Currently, the only way I can get on the Internet is via the library. (I had to temporarily override the filtering in order to post this message.)

Thought you'd like to know, so that you can maybe do something about it.

Gosh , I wish...no just kidding... The last x-rated pics I seen on here was either Siri or Jnett's dancing cats .. Brian would never have any part of that on here. ...It's a shame you have no other access...

Thanks for letting us know about that. I will try and contact them and see if they will change their policy. allnurses.com is quite the educational resource I think

I sent them an email request to remove us from their web filter.

Have you tried approaching the library staff about this? Maybe they can get you a number of the IT department or who ever manages their firewall filter?

Hi Brian

The filtering system that the library uses allows the user to send messages regarding blocked sites. I sent them at least two of those messages, with several days between them. (I figured that it would take time for them to investigate.)

Apparently, my messages and your email request have worked. The library is now (finally!) no longer blocking AllNurses.com. Yea!!
