Default WebSense - 2k Unaffected?

Aighty, so our school has put their WebSense filter back up. Most retarded thing ever, in my opinion. Photobucket ("Personal Network Backup & Storage") is blocked, but Facebook isnt. Go figure.

Anyways, all our school computers use XP, which then run through a proxy (WebSense) at the school board. To get around WebSense, we just use Firefox and a proxy. However, when working on some older computers in Engineering (ones that are running 2k), we can go to any site we want, without the filter blocking it (proxy-free). Why is XP affected, but 2k isnt?
