PROXY SERVERS:
If your school or district uses a Proxy Server (such as Blue Coat) you must put a caching exclusion in place so that your
proxy server does not cache content from http://www.firstinmath.com - Players need to see a NEW page every time.
Some proxy servers, web filters or firewalls automatically block certain types of data streams. To pass information
between our website and the games we require the following Content Type to be added if it is not already present.
Content-Type is: ‘application/x-www-form-urlencoded’
SECURITY HARDWARE/SOFTWARE:
• Your security hardware/software or firewall must "ALLOW" the First In Math site, and must also allow Flash content.
• Email addresses “@24game.com” and “@firstinmath.com” must be allowed by your email filter(s) so that your staff
can access FIM Support, and other FIM communications.
