Why does my school block everything on the computer?

[Mystery]

Sick name, Jimmy page fan?

Schools are awful with this stuff, there's not a lot you can do. Maybe talk to the media people and explain your case. Educators should understand that listening to music helps some people learn. Also, if you're searching for school project materials, those things shouldn't be blocked. Sounds like your IT people need to figure out what is dangerous material. I understand Facebook being blocked, and so do you I guess. Does it tell you why these sites are blocked?
At my school Scottrade.com was blocked because it's an investing site. This actually cost me money, and I suppose education in the field I'm interested in. Don't let this happen to you, bring it up to the administrators.

Also, keep listening to Led Zeppelin.
