<DIV><FONT face=Verdana size=2>We block it on the children's computers but not the adult ones,you can set up a max bandwidth allowed for this site on your firewall/router and that should help as far as the bandwidth problem.</FONT></DIV>

<P class=MsoNormal><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Arial">Do any libraries out there filter out or block MySpace? I ask because for one, it really consumes a huge amount of bandwidth with all the streaming audio and whatnot. Also it has a tendency to generate tech calls with patrons wanting help on uploading pictures or scanning pictures then uploading them to their pages, or even the occasional “help I cannot get into my MySpace email account” kind of scenarios. Don’t get me wrong, we love helping out our patrons but sometimes it seems to get a little ridiculous with the kind of help that is being asked for and perhaps it is just me but it seems to come in waves. </SPAN></FONT><FONT face=Wingdings size=2><SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Wingdings">J</SPAN></FONT><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Arial"> I’d love to hear any feedback on this.
