How can I look like I am working at my desk and be surfing the web?
What a unique concept… Look like you are working on a word document but ACTUALLY you are surfing the web. This is very cool (not if you are the boss of course) http://www.workfriendly.net makes your favorite web page – work friendly. Check it out:
So it wordifies your page to look like a word document with a browser bar…
And see that red circle – hover over the boss key and automagically this document replaces what you were reading with a screen with no browser bar and this productivity crap:
Do you have a pointy haired dilbert-esque boss out to get you? Do you have a better plan of action for combating people who want you to be productive?

*THAT* is brilliant! Excellent for catching up on my blog reading, not great for graphic heavy pages though.
Now, all those savvy web folks need to do is design an option for Word 2007, and remove the address bar along the top. I see from your pics that you do not show the address bar, this may be and IE7 thing.
Great find, ATA. Thanks.

I am using IE7 as well and it seems to kill my address bar. Anyone else having this issue? Must be a setting in there somewhere?

Another good option is to browse away with a quick fix to hide your surfing.
Check out the firefox add-on called "Panic" : Productivity and Networking Information Component. Install this add on and whenever you see the tyrant coming your way press Ctrl+tilde (button below escape and above tab on most keyboards) and all of your tabs and current window are killed and replaced with a page you set. The default is a google search on how to increase productivity, something your boss should appreciate!
Works like a charm, and its better than simply minimizing or closing all tabs b/c minimizing does not eliminate the evidence and closing all tabs leaves you with a blank screen which probably looks worse.

Have you checked out borwser called Ghostzilla? If I remember correctly it could be opened on any application and it would go invisible as soon as mouse was moved away from browser window.
