Or maybe you can use some non-graphical, text-based internet browser program to read and post to the forum. When there are no graphics and it's just text, anything looks like work.

I guess there is still some life for Lynx yet...

Re: Forum Addiction (U Know You\'re Addicted When...)
An added question would be,
Q Is this forum your home page?
Q Do you go through withdrawls when it is down?
Q Do you post more than five times an hour?
Q Do you read this forum at work?
Q Do you wish you worked at this forum?
LOL, We need another 12 step program in addition to our current 12 Step Program for SEIV addiction.

Re: Forum Addiction (U Know You\'re Addicted When...)
I use Notepad to hide yahoo messenger. I'll type the message in notepad, cut, Alt Tab, then paste.
I have to be fast. I think I will stick to using the remote office I found.
Clearly we all have a problem here. The question is do we want to fix it.

Problem? Who's got a problem? What's the problem with this? I don't see anything wrong with this behavior. I'm not addicted...

Re: Forum Addiction (U Know You\'re Addicted When...)
LOL! In response to all of Atrocities' questions: Yes.
As for lynx- yeah, it was a great browser. Only trouble is that ppl here would recognise it, being of a technical nature. What I need is a browser that's disguised as Excel or word.
Actually, you can display web pages in Word, can't you?
Hmmm...

Re: Forum Addiction (U Know You\'re Addicted When...)
I just got the weirdest idea... why not do an 'office mod' for SEIV ? Change the space backgrounds to white. Change the planets, etc. images to look like lines of code/text/numbers. Change report images and speech files so they look like work but you still know what they mean.
Hmmm... better yet, call this the 'boss mod' !!

Now that you mention it Word does have a Web toolbar but when you go to a web site it becomes IE. You can hit the back button an it will revert to Word.
