    How's it goin? Might have read the thread on the music board... I'm looking to d/l videos and media blah, blah... and the best way is using these P2P sharing apps, such as Morpheus... I am however, behind a firewall and therefore can't use them.

    Just wondering if anyone knows of any progs, or ways around this!? Thanks in advance..

    If you're admin you can easily open a port in the firewall to allow anything!

    If not ..

    If your admin regularly checks the logs they will. Dodgy stuff messing with firewalls if you dont know what your doing. If I was your admin Id be well pi**ed off and slap you around the head a few times. Good luck wink.gif

    What do you know about the firewall ?

    If it's using a proxy for web access then you can use httptunnel i think it is. It wraps the packets from your program in http packets, send it to an outside website which unwraps them and sends them on their way to the filesharing server/whatever.

    Search on google for the prog.
