What's a girl to do! Half the ppl telling you ways to get away with it and the other half telling you not to go down this road!

Do you think it is healthy to sacrifice your career for internet pixels which may not exist a year or two from now?

Easy question. No I don't.

And to everyone suggesting I bring/buy a laptop to play on, great suggestion, but there's a few reasons why I'm not opting for that. First off, I'm trying to be covert. Having a second computer on my desk running a game feels a bit more obvious than just having it run on one of my monitors. Plus there's the cost associated with this that doesn't quite match my price point. Then I'd also have to explain to my wife why I purchased a laptop after I just built a gaming PC earlier this year.

I did hop on briefly yesterday, but barely did anything because I have to setup my UI again. Plus I was getting butt slammed with a ton of issues at work.

The goal is using EQ as a carrot on a stick. Once I clear all my to-dos (which right now I have an extremely healthy list) I'll hop on and dick around on my monk till someone interrupts me. The way I see it, I already dick around on Facebook, Reddit, YouTube, etc when time allows. This will be similar to that, but I'm playing our favorite game. [You must be logged in to view images.

The antihack dll might get flagged by your corporate antivirus (false positive) and then they will investigate further.

As for the idea of running a remote session back to your home PC, that will be seen as a high load connection to anyone monitoring network traffic, more than any music streaming etc. Basically your traffic will stick out like a sore thumb if anyone bothers to look. And that will provoke further investigation.

I had a friend at SunGard who would monitor SEP for clients just so they could fire people who had torrent software/trojans installed on their PCs.

Unless you are the Network Admin, this is probably a bad idea.

^ just wait till you get home man.

As a network admin I would not recommend it. At your job if you have an IT staff who is anywhere near competent they will know what you are doing real fast. Other then that, I could easily play at work myself but I don't because then it would totally mess up my job.

It's mildly interesting that most of the warnings here are about how IT or a Network Admins can detect and catch me playing EQ at work resulting in me getting fired; however, the only anecdote on here about losing jobs over EQ pertain to drops in performance.
