"For one thing, the internet cafes weren't the most cooperative. Most of us know that China blocks a lot of websites, like anything on Geocities or any Typepad blogs. Trying to access those pages directly from China yields the browser's "page not found" error. However, some of Tianjin's internet cafes have a kind of proprietary software installed that closes all open browser windows if there is any attempt to access a page on the blocked list. Let me tell you, that is really annoying! Sometimes you don't even know that the link you clicked on is blocked, and then suddenly your e-mail, news stories, etc. that you had open are all closed. Grrrr... Maybe this is becoming more common in internet cafes in China -- I haven't needed to use an internet cafe in a while -- but it's the first time that I've seen it."
- wouldn't that SUCK or what. glad i don't need to use any chinese internet cafe.
