| When I left Saudi a month ago, this site that you are on right now was/is one of the blocked sites. So don't think it is only porn that's blocked. They block what they want when they want. |

Yeah and if you have a VPN or proxy you can still get on this site even if it is blocked. Just like I'm doing right now from Riyadh.

| Yeah, if you have the right software to unblock the sites in Saudi I guess you can play ... (err, post) with yourself. The rest of us can't see what your posting here anyway until we leave the country. |

Some people might be sexually aroused by Grendal's avatar. I think it should be banned.

A couple of popular VPN choices:
http://hidemyass.com/
and
http://strongvpn.com/
I currently use the HMA! Pro VPN (yearly subscription) and it allows me to do access everything I normally do back in the states (even streaming my netflix). You may encounter some obstacles when you try to use the VPN at your work place (depending upon your employer). If you do, just email HMA!'s customer service and they can usually help you work around it. They're pretty fast with their response time. |

| Are all porn sites blocked? Not at work but generally. For example if you have a laptop or desktop computer at your home? |

I'm waiting to see if we have anyone here who has visited them all so that he can report.
