The version of the filter software they have now probably does have user groups. The version they had when I was there just said "your access has been denied" and gave no details, although I think it had a link to enter a password to circumvent the block. InvisionFree was definitely blocked on Katelin's account when I went to post scores from Districts

since you usually log on with a teacher's log in, marie, you might have access to things lowly students don't. i definitely know invisonfree is blocked for students.

Must have been one pretty bad server crash on that BOC... though I surprisingly didn't have too much trouble getting all the way to being stuck on the order processing screen. I ultimately didn't get my 3 though.

If they keep doing these $0.01 deals (4 days in a row now) the partnership with Yahoo is going to be completely pointless... it'll just be the same Wooters snagging them all up within the first hour and ignoring what's on the Yahoo Shopping page... though I guess it will still bring in more people to Woot.

Oh well - it's not like I've ever bought anything during a wootoff before
