If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?

At this point I would have been notifying my CEO that due to our corporate bureaucracy that the version we're on, with all it's known vulnerabilities, is the last version we can get.

go home. Download it. Then upload with a different extension or put on USB drive.
Be sure and change the extension. Until you copy it to your computer at work then copy it back.
old employer had this same issues. took at least a week to work around. each issue. Wound up many times going home downloading then changing the extension then bringing into work.
WHICH IS MORE OF A SECURITY HOLE! but it worked.

And you wonder why people go home and download it a USB drive.
I've had this issue with my customer's IT department. Sure, the firewall blocks all of the porn and what have you, but there are many commercial sites that get blocked. I used to just say elephant it and go home to get the files I need, but I discovered VPN Completely circumvents their firewall. Ponder that. Don't worry, I'm the good guy, but it does make me wonder.

No different than letting a stranger into your house (the zip file). At least your company knows who opened the door (and can close it again).
It was only in wine that he laid down no limit for himself, but he did not allow himself to be confused by it.

It appears we need a detailed explanation!

Is preoccupied an indicator for taking the first letter(s)?
|
|

I thought the "preoccupied with detail" gave "anal" (as it were) and was a bit confused that the "B" must then lead to book ...
|
|

|

To be honest I got the last four letters, and got "banal" from that. I didn't worry about the "B" because I wasn't going to give a "full explanation" for that one!

Maybe it's that a book would be considered pretty boring if you were only allowed to use the letter "B" when writing it.
Can you tell I'm grasping?
