I have the same problem. It really sucks.
It doesn't work that way. If you can't browse at work... it's your works fault.
The MODS can't do a thing about it.
That is not completely true, the moderators can't fix it but the owner can. The website owner can classify the website as something that will get past most filters. For instance, KLOV used to be classified as 'medical information' when it was linked directly with the Lymphoma forums. At that time virtually no one was restricted from KLOV with the generic filtering software utilized by most companies. When it shifted to the new software it became classified as 'games and gaming'. That is when I, and many others became blocked.
At the present time I can access the KLOV forums but not the IAM/KLOV main site. Some of the links are broken, many of the linked pictures don't show up, and occasionally even the forums are blocked but it is still much better than what I had for the first few months of the new software.
Oddly, on occasion an individual thread will be blocked under the classification of 'games and gaming' but this is rare and almost always a fluff thread anyway...
if its your work proxy, try a page like this that bypasses the proxy restriction by retrieving the page and hosting it for you (via a different source that probably isn't blocked)

This doesn't change my answer. Just because the mods can change the metadata back to "Lymphoma Information" doesn't mean they should so people can sneak by work filters.
I run a university web site, and I wouldn't alter the metadata to let a few people who can't/shouldn't be browsing through.
If it's not a big deal, ask your boss to get the server monkeys to add the site as an exception. If it is a big deal, and it can't be added/you'd get in trouble for asking... then maybe browsing this site at work isn't the best idea.
Not trying to be a dick or argumentative... I'm just saying. I like everybody.
In reality, I personally would use a remote Xorg session over ssh, since I have a FreeBSD box @ home, but options A&B are for the normal folk![]()
Being the IT guy here, I dont have to worry about that. But if I did, I would A-> Setup a VPN to my home network so everything came from there and thus didnt get filtered, or B-> Use UltraVNC / TightVNC, ect to take remote control of my home station. You could even setup a repeater on the home system if you didnt want to setup a DMZ ip on your router, or forward the specific ports!

The best one I think I have come up with to date is all facebook traffic redirects to the EDD website.
