First!

What is the problem with the third?
Admin
Nothing, unless you use a computer that was made in this century.
Admin
This is wrong with the third one:
Admin
The problem with the third one is that it doesn't have my MicroVAX (running VMS) listed. Never mind the other question: Why do they care?
Admin
Did you notice that it says "lick the Microsoft Office Button" ? I just imagine someone wiping his screen surface with his tongue ...
Admin
Also: do many people visit the site from their Network Appliances Filers?
Admin
For #3, I bet their bug tracker analyst is curious why everyone submits "Other" for that question.
Admin
When you the website you used to work on on Error'd...
Not that I did that page, mind.
Addendum 2016-07-01 10:29: *when you see
Admin
Why would you see the block page once the page you want is no longer blocked? Or do you click now so that it’ll automatically display the page to you when the block expires?
Admin
That was the joke.
Admin
Can't see what the problem is with the site blocker. On the computer it is being viewed on, the block is permanent, surely? Is that not what you would expect on a work computer?
Admin
Possibly, when the app first went live, they were having difficulty making it work on all platforms. Certain platforms may have exhibited different problems. So to shortcut the troubleshooting time, they asked up front what machine you're running on so as to give them a clue. The only WTF is that nobody has bothered to update the menu. Maybe it's because it's rarely used, which would be a tribute to good software design and maintenance.
Admin
OS and Browser options are also a little outdated on that page.
Admin
Once time ends how will time pass so the block can expire?
Admin
But really old is bad thing with the internet when you are stuck having to use IE. But Apple mk68K (680X0) systems still in the list with P4's in there?
Admin
Oh, that report form is so cute! It lists 28k8 and Netscape Navigator 3.x as default.
Admin
Also, why does it ask what browser you're using? User agents? Anyone?
Admin
#3 -- bonus item for for us in the UK: "license" vs "licence". hilarious!
Admin
I tried to follow the instructions and licked the Microsoft Office button. Next thing I knew I was using up a sick day on the next work day with a bad case of diarrhea. By the way, the button tasted like crap.
Admin
tunnel1 and tunnel2 show up on my website to:
https://www.transsee.ca/stoplist?a=mta&r=X68
This and other routes with branches have the stops on each branch interleaved making the stop list confusing.

User agents can be spoofed, either on purpose or by a malicious extension.
