lol, I was thinking the same thing except for the Flash bit (figured I could sniff the HTTP and wondered if they sent it unhashed or not). Wasn't actually gonna do it of course, but the web dev in me always thinks about the "how does it work" kinda thing.

So far i'm not digging it. There's too many blog sections, and i would like to read some of the content i saw in the screenshots posted earlier but i haven't been able to find it. Keeping my fingers crossed that they'll get it all straightened out soon.

Are you using Ad Muncher? I had the same problems, but then added topgear.com to the not-to-be-filtered-url list and all was well. images/smilies/smile.gif

FYI: the blog pages are hosted by Automattic i.e. WordPress.com people rather than the BBC or whoever hosts the rest of the site.

Did anyone here actually manage to finish the office game? How many levels are there? I got to level 7 so far, but when I look at the high score list, I get the feeling that there must be at least another 70 or so. images/smilies/cry.gif

LindenChase, I've gotten so used to waiting for your posts on these darn games. You have to use your free time and make us non-like minded people walkthroughs or something. images/smilies/lol.gif

I have however just reached level eight and spotted a meeting room. I just ran out of time before I managed to reach it. images/smilies/tongue.gif

Edit: I managed to reach the meeting at level ten! Yeah me! images/smilies/tongue.gif
