Even if you can...you might get in trouble if you try.

School computer people tend to be really hard nosed about their "security" precautions. Even if you don't do anything bad, you might get slammed just for working around them.

If the network guys/gals are doing what they should. Then they are monitoring the network also. If you find something to get around their filters. They will see it. Like technologist stated you may get in trouble. It would be better just do what you need to do on your own network.

when i was in high school there was a website we used to get around the schools firewalls. Then that website stopped working so what we did was use a proxy. If you can find a good list of proxies, just use that.

Guys, this thread is locked. We will not allow discussion of hacking networks here. If you have a legitimate need to get through the firewall, discuss it with your school network admin. Otherwise, get your own internet.
