    I hope this subject hasn't been harped on too much - I just joined your
    group. Our corporation has blocked access to GoToMyPC and Webex due to
    security concerns. As a firewall administrator, I had to block the IP
    range of both sites. We have taken a lot of slack about the Webex site, all
    of them saying it is "so very safe, since
    all traffic is originated inside, and the security very granular". We even
    have a vendor that states Webex is their only way of supporting their
    product. How does everyone else feel about/handle Webex andsimilar sites?

    Thanks,
    Steve Smith
