I’m guessing any other attempts to bypass this filter, will be easily detected by the IT guy. ---

If you don’t want to blatently advertise you trying to go around it using the website i posted, setup a SSH tunnel to your PC at home and pipe all your traffic through that. Its encrypted and all your IT guy will see is SSH traffic to a random IP address. ---

Its encrypted and all your IT guy will see is SSH traffic to a random IP address. Very troublesome, but probably your best bet if the proxy doesn’t work. I haven’t tested it out totally but Winamp has a “remote desktop” type feature. I think if you install it, then log in you can stream any sort of media from your home PC. I’ll have to test this out later. ---
