1 hour of gaming on p99 takes less than 5 MB. IT department would never even blink at that. If they were monitoring network traffic all they would see is your IP connected to another IP and through a port. What are they going to do with that information? They could figure out what processes on your computer are connected to that port and find eqgame.exe. But that's a lot of work for a tcp connection thats producing virtually no traffic. Maybe they packet sniff every incoming packet, in that case holler at them to give you a dump of the current zone you're in to see if that named mob is up (but really that sounds like more work than usual, and may be a privacy violation in your company). If they are capable of visually monitoring your computer than that's a different story.

If you want to play at work you need a phone with 3G+ tethered to a personal laptop.

Good info thx.
