Maybe Hot? Stealth Switch Desktop Cloaking Device $26.50 at geeks!

[vegeto456]

Never saw this product before and thought it was humorous if nothing else. I'm sure theres software that could do almost the exact same thing.

StealthSwitch is a microprocessor based computer privacy device. StealthSwitch uses technology to instantly and completely hide applications with a press of the footswitch. The applications are not just minimized they are made completely invisible. No more minimizing applications, turning off the monitor, or re-booting when someone enters your office or cubicle. With a simple click of the foot switch, you can instantly hide the current window, hide all open windows, or hide all open windows except certain windows. And the best part - because the StealthSwitch is under your desk, no one will notice. When they leave your office, simply click the foot switch again and your programs are back just the way they were.

Porn at work! That's like dropping an axe on your foot. The description of the product is pretty funny though. 😛

well if you just wanna minimize all windows, simply hit the Windows key + M. ^^

And that software is called Don't Panic! by Panicware.

Lol, of course if your IT depart keeps access logs then this doesn't mean crap.

surfing porn at work is asking to be fired.

this device will not get past a halfway competent IT department.

 

[FrontlineWarrior]

the fact that this device exists is both sad and hilarious

 

[Injury]

Yeah, because it hides the data that's transferred, too. :-\

That's how we fired on manager. He was surfing Porn during Lunch. He tried to deny it and we went to his computer and pulled the history straight from IE.

Ouch.....Porn = Quick Ticket to the EDD. (That's the Unemployment Office for people in other states).

Many companies nowadays install software that monitor employees' internet usage. You can run, but you can't hide.

 

[cvstrat]

Hah, I would love to see someone use this.

The Boss..."Hey, whats that footswitch under your desk for?"

 

[deeznuts]

Well, it'll work great at home too though. Surfing porn on the main computer. Buying electronics when you have forbidden to.

It's pretty sad, I mean don't these people have a computer and internet at home? Or are they just not able to "hold it" until they get home?
