Employers Blocking Social Networking Sites More Often

According to research from ScanSafe, companies are increasingly blocking social networking sites. Seventy-six percent of the company's customers block sites like Facebook, a 20 percent increase over the last six months. Fifty-eight percent block access to webmail, 52 percent block access to shopping sites, and 51 percent block access to sports sites.
Social networking sites can expose companies to malware and can also drain employees' productivity.
