Morning All

 

Is anyone else having problems with NetSweeper not categorising sites? I'm trying to access a couple of sites, that it had check previously, but it is rechecking them and has been doing for 30mins or so.

 

I've e-mailed the filter team, but with no reply as yet, so just wondered if anyone else was having problems?

Yep exactly the same here. Have called Westfield and they said alot of people have informed them about it (so it's a county wide issue).

I've just come off the phone to them and they have said this is expected behaviour - I think we're all doomed anyway up in Lancashire!!

NetSweeper seems to be back on form today, its scanning pages rather quickly and gives a yay or nay in under a minute

Yeah much better today! Thank god for that - I was scared that was going to be "Normal Behaviour" for the foreseeable future!!
