Blocked webmail at work

[slick rick]

My workplace just installed some time of new spam blocker box. Along with blocking spam it also disallows us from accessing any time of web based email. hotmail, yahoo, gmail ect.

I have tried a couple different things that i thought may be a way around it. i entered in the actual hotmail IP instead of the website, that didn't work.

I tried using one of the sites that are supposed to block IP address, hidemyass.com and that didn't work either.

Any of you helicopter heads know a way around this.

www.vtunnel.com

To unblock any websites that have been filtered through your computer at work so you can't use it, go to www.vtunnel.com. Enter your URL for the page you want to unblock and you'll get through no matter what account.

FYI, most proxy's should be blocked if the firewall is worth its shit

Try firefox portable. Download it to a usb stick and take it with you to work.

Vtunnel worked.. but it does not have the same accessability, I can't view pics in an email ect. i think it must have something to do with the Java settings? Better than nothing though. Thx guys
