network filters and work surfing
pofnlice:
OK...here's the problem. My work place uses windows 2000 pro. The system admins are Nazi's who creat word filter for site access through the server that blocks a lot of legit sites. What's the best way to over come some of these filters.
TheQuirk:
Get an Anonymizer account (it's fairly cheap).
Stryker:
you probably can't. If it's a proxy server they control everything... ur screwed. If it's a lower network layer setup on a gateway to the internet, no hope if they filter packets. I suppose the real question is... how are they doing it?
pofnlice:
They blocked it!!! Any other Idears?

lots of ideas, but it all depends on how they are blocking it. How exactly are you connected to the internet? I'm sure it's not a direct connection, it's sounding like a proxy server but I don't know for sure...
If it is a proxy you're pretty much screwed unless they have a second, non-blocked, proxy server on the network you can use.
I'd suggest just following your work's policy on internet usage.
