I hate filtering proxy servers. :swear:
-
Get putty and make an SSH tunnel home,
Make a Proxy at you house.
Make a quick/Temporary proxy change.
Solves the problem and its cool.... We'll just leave it at solve the problem.

too bad that won't work. They block SSH. grrr.

:swear: BLOODY DEVILS :swear:
Have you tried some of the proxy sites out there
-
the problem is that the filtering occurs at the gates here. I can't get out to the other sites and do anything because the filtering occurs before I leave the location and get on the 'Net. I would have to create something that uses a port that isn't blocked, like 80 or 443, and connect to that.
I think I could actually get a SSH tunnel setup if I used your solution on an off port. But that would also mean that I cannot hit internal resources when it is running.

Heres what you do:
Load up a thumb drive with Firefox and Putty
There is a portable Firefox (http://portableapps.com/apps/internet/firefox_portable) that can run from a thumb drive.
Setup at home an openSSH proxy server
run Putty on the thumb drive and tell Firefox that putty is its proxy and that should do it.
Both should fit on a gig thumb drive and operate on the drive just fine.
no real foot print and you have the best of both worlds.
IE lets you access inside and unblocked content
and Firefox on the thumbdrive lets you have the world.

hmmm, that might be doable. I can't use Firefox for internal browsing, and it is easy to change the proxy settings in app as well.
