CompuMaster Online Training and Firewalls

Webopedia defines firewall as a system designed to prevent unauthorized access to or from a private network.

If your computer is located behind a company firewall, you might not be able to access portions of the CompuMaster Online Training Web site from work. Company firewalls sometimes block JavaScript, or won't let you log in to a secure server -- which CompuMaster Online Training requires.

• If your company's firewall blocks JavaScript, you won't be able to enter the classrooms from your work computer.
• If your company firewall allows JavaScript but doesn't allow access to a secure server, you won't be able to access the classrooms from work.

Check with your system administrator to find out what external sites you can access at your location.
