I am the Information Systems Manager for a company with about 200 users. I have a Helpdesk guy, and a Network Engineer under me. We do very well as I have most of this place automated with System Center.

The firewall content filter we use does not block the Project 1999 website. I use it all the time.

I have also excluded my AD login from all logging on the firewall as we (on a monthly basis) review the firewall logs to see who is doing what on the network. The firewall also logs the sites it has blocked, so it's kind of hilarious to see not only what people are doing, but what they are trying to do.

If I saw a computer with a constant connection to a specific IP address, you bet your ass I'd figure out what that IP address was, then I would rain righteous fire and vengeance upon them.

In short: RL > Pixels. Play at home.

To the people saying "Use Teamviewer! They'll never know!" you fail to understand that most forms of VNC don't alert the user that someone has connected, so something like that would play out like this:

Myself or my staff would see the constant TeamViewer traffic in the firewall logs
I'd have one of my guys "babysit" your desktop via VNC on their 2nd or 3rd monitor
We'd see you logging into your home PC and firing up EQ
We would ruin your day

Your results may vary.
