for one if your using a windows pc the firewall supplied is junk. i could hack tht with my dog at the keyboard. get you self a better reputed fire wall like one by symantics. or which ever one you choose. install it an then it should ask you everytime you accses a program tht connect via internet. if you know the program is safe enable it to accese. if you are worried it is nopt then dont let it use the net.

go to anonycat.com and type in the site u want access to ... u'll be able to access all the restricted sites\n\neven if u have admin rights u might not have access to the firewall if the group policy does not permit you.

Use a firewall (either hardware or software) and block the port 1234, 1236 and 1238, set password to settings, done!

As far as I know ZoneAlarm firewall is freeware now so you can download it and install it. Another alternative is this one:\nhttp://www.ghostsecurity.com/ghostwall/

Access would be slow since the network would be seriously overloaded . Moreover it will be difficult to configure firewall settings and permission levels if u do not use proxy
