I use my iPad at work and We have barracuda. I notice that when I go into my Flipboard app, when I touch on an article to read further it says "redirecting to barracuda web filtering" but the page never opens. I have to touch on a link at the bottom of the page. This has never happened before when I use my iPad at work. Can someone tell me how to get ride of it?
Thank you!

I am not sure what that junk is but I am pretty sure it's down on the router.
Unless you can reprogram the router you are out of luck.
Your IT department must have installed the malware/Spyware software.
Have a word with your IT Manager.
Johnathan Buger ... thank you for replying!
For Diavonex - thank you as well. I will go to our IT Manager at work and see if he can get it off there. I know they use it and restrict us from using the internet for certain pages. I was using the free WIFI that they offer customers who are waiting around. I didn't realise that that this would affect my ipad if I used the same connection our customers used.
Thank you again!
If your company has web filtering for guests, it'll apply to anyone using that connection. Just like, i'm going to presume, McDonalds blocks known adult sites (never tried but I can see places blocking sites as that)
The person that provides the service often chooses to control how people use it. The only way to get totally free of their filtering is likely to use the 3G aspect, or buy yourself a 3G hotspot and use that to surf...course you'll be paying for your data usage but at least you can access whatever you want.
Thanks Skydiver ... I understand that I will get the barracuda showing up and work, however ... why would it show up at home when I use a totally different provider at home? It is annoying that my pages don't automatically load and I have to take one more step to further read what caught my interest.
Didn't realize you were experiencing it at home, sorry. YOu're either pulling up cached pages from when you tried to access the sites at work - in which case clearing safari's cache will be helpful.
how do I get rid of barracuda web filtering
