okay, so my isp doesn't allow me to access certain websites... Now i know what you are thinking, but it's more than that. It doesn't allow me to access a lot of sites that seem to have any adult concepts - not porn related. It brings me to a page that is in korean - obviously - and it seems to be some sort of child protection type thing. The website is run by GS - who i assume i get my internet from...

I guess my question is how do i turn this off as to free up my internet access? I really don't want to ask people from work how to take this down because i think there first thoughts would be similar to what mine would be - he can't access porn - and really, i don't want that to be a topic of conversation at the school

Thanks for any help you can give

call your ISP and ask them to turn it off. Or ask a Korean to call for you, if you don't have the Korean skills.

If you called them you wouldn't have to deal with a proxy and the slowness that comes with it.
