Thanks for all the great comments guys. I do realize that the firewall is there for a reason, but I have been up at this job for a while accessing this site and posting as I have time.
Then all of a sudden last week I can't even connect to the site anymore. It is classified as a game site and the firewall has stopped me from being able to do anything with it. I have made a lot of friends here that all post during work and I hate that because of some blanket firewall I can no longer communicate with them.
That is what I miss and wish to be able to have again. As far as disipline goes, if someone else sets up the proxy or an admin (Read: "A communications buddy") would bypass it for me then the worst that would happen is a denial of any involvement in bypassing a firewall and a possible slap on the hand.
And just because I feel the need to say it; "Fight the power!"
1. you are at work. work, dont browse *grins*
2. if you run winXP pro at home, just TS (remote connect) and you are set. that is if you have a router that alows port forwarding, and you are on high speed connection.
as long as the firewall does not block the TS port on the outgoing, you are set.
if it does, and you have admin priv. at your workstation, you can invest in a router/IPCop system and setup ZVPN, then browse either via VNC (thus the need for admin rights as you will need to install that to your workstation, same thing for TS client if you are on win2k pro) if you are not running XP pro at home, or TS if you are.
