LOLOL - I just had a good laugh.

I noticed that my street name has been censored in a PM.

I live in C o c k e r Avenue and its been amended to ****er Avenue

Ha! The law of unintended consequences strikes again.

I turned on the bad words filter. I just adjusted it so you should be able to see Cocker Avenue.
 
Gotta remember the spaces and escape characters.

I turned on the word filter in our spam filter at work and was accidentally blocking all kinds of stuff. heh Gotta remember spaces!
 
At work, someone in our group was instructed by the boss (Think Dilbert) to activate filters on all communications. Of course, the boss didn't think it necessary to like, TELL ANYONE THEY DID IT!:frown::frown: OR MONITOR THE RESULTS:mad::mad:

So all our nice encrypted transmissions that contain financial information started randomly failing. After much head scratching we determined that the failing communications all had the letters "Sam E. Xavier" in the encrypted text!

Sometimes that doesn't even help..... I used to get data dumps from our IT people daily. Reason, one of the words that they used to hijack emails was a certain short form of the name Richard. I had an attorney by the name. Took me two weeks to convince IT they either had to turn it off, or have someone dedicated to getting his emails to me.
