Someone try hitting one of those interesting site and really put this to a test. You know what I mean by interesting sites. If you get can, sue safeweb or something.

What about those of us that are in the IT group?

Never happen, we don't have time to browse sites like this here at work.... :)

Being an IT person myself, let me give you a quick run down of the events that might occur if you choose to do this. You already know that you or anyone else's IT shop can find out what sites you go to. They are probably pretty computer savvy, also, so know which sites are used for anonymous surfing such as safeweb, etc. This would probably just send a 'red flag' to them that you are trying to hide something. Hey, but wait that can't find out what you have been doing since you are using safeweb, right? Wrong, if they see you are trying to hide something they will turn into Super Dilbert and come down to your office and audit your PC or worse confiscate your hard drive and run a super utility they downloaded from tucows and find out that you have been surfing for deals, and also the d/ls of that other questionable material, and maybe even those Donnie and Marie mp3s that you've stashed away... Anyways, I'm just kidding... there probably not going to take their feet off their desk that long, have fun.

If you need additional security protection and are using Internet Explorer 5, just set it so that Secure Socket Layer pages are not cached on the hard disk drive and 0 days history is retained, plus delete positively the cookies and history every time the browser is used.
This makes the 'back' button useless but assures that no hard disk audit will display SSL pages.
Additional measures are possible but are usually not worth the hassle unless the risk is great.
