Ohh wow.. IT actually looked into my issue.. only reason I can't access HTC from work is because they banned all sites related to gaming..lol..  Sorry for doubting the awesomeness of HTC.  :o   what kind of employer banned his employees from gaming at work??  All I have now is YouTube and Facebook ..  :huh

Isn't one of the biggest features of facebook flash games?   :headscratch:

Doesn't HTC sell cell phones or something?  Just go with a Galaxy S3, everyone I know that has one likes it.

lost and stolen phones are locked by the insurance company, not all of them but I think now a days a good portion of them.  I think what you are doing is buying the phone from the insurance company.

 btw when I lost my droid x, one of my neighbors found it and i was able to track it to him.  he found it at the store and brought it home and it logged into my wifi.  when I activated the tracking software it brought to directly to his house.  you should have seen the look on his face when I asked him if he had found a phone at the grocery store 2 miles away  :rofl.

Yes, and I wouldn't play one. Reason?
Every FB app/game wants access at any time to your personal info,
and will use/share it with anyone they want.

                                                                                                                              :cheers: Oz

   Many companies are employing software to cut down on employee's wasting company time on thier networks. It cost them millions of dollars in productivity every year. Like others said gaming websites are on the list of excluded sites.

                                                      Get to work!  :old:




      Hope they don't figure it out at my work......... :noid

Hope my work doesn't see everyone playing League of Legends, Eve and World of Tanks.....If I could figure out where to stash my stick and throttle......hmmmm, desk drawer might be big enough.

I don't download music or videos and I don't go to porn sites. The only mistake I ever made, on a computer, was FB.

Your problem isn't sharing the personal information in your account if you give Facebook fake information about yourself.

Does Facebook know my real name?  No.
Does Facebook know my actual day, month, or year of birth?  No.
Does Facebook know my actual cell phone number?  No.
Does Facebook know an email address that I've used for anything other than Facebook?  No.

I feel ok using Facebook as much as I do with these simple, obvious precautions.
