don't pay attention to these yahoos. if you just want to read your email, there are a few ways to get around your school's firewalls, but an easy one is to download http tunnel. try getting it at \nhttp://www.topshareware.com/HTTP-Tunnel-download-11926.htm\n\ndownload it or get someone else to and burn it on to a disk for you, then take it to school & run it on the computer in the lab & voila!\n\ngood luck.

The best thing to do is install virus scanning software.  There are many options, the most popular being Norton and MacAfee, but both tend to slow down most computers.  I personally like using ZoneAlarm products for both firewall and antivirus.\nNot matter what, install the software and update to the latest definitions.  Then scan for viruses.\nThis works for both laptops and desktops.

You are most probabaly behind a firewall and using proxy.Just go to settings> connections.\nThen select 'Use the following proxy:'\nFill all the details,by getting then from Tools> Internet options>Connections> Lan settings.

Well you can turn the firewall off if you don't need it. But, if you want it to block a site go to the firewall settings and add the site to the "block list" Also if you aren't  the administrator don't try to block it. It won't work and you will get caught and seen trying to turn off the firewall. Remember you are being monitored on the computer at all times!\nHope I helped you!

All you need is open proxy server.  \nThere are some lists of them, try this for example:\nhttp://tools.rosinstrument.com/proxy/\n\nJust check is it block from your school and is its connection speed enough for you.\n\nTo use proxy go to Internet Explorer menu Tools/Internet options/Connections tab/LAN settings/Proxy server

Use a hardware firewall with NAT and all ports stealthed. Make sure UPnP is disabled, and only allow outgoing connections to trusted (non-proxy) sites.

I don't know of any way to block the firewall. You might be able to go to a local coffee shop, library, hotel, book store, or any other place and get wireless access for your laptop.

You probably are hitting a firewall set up by either the person who had it before you, or the administrator. What type of system do you have and how old are you?

easy.\n\nif you're using windows sp1; go to control panel; then click on networking; then right click on your internet connection, the click properties; then click advanced, and check on the firewall.\n\nif you're using windows sp2; go to control panel and windows firewall is there.\n\nif you're using an anitvirus like trend micro or norton, chances are there is a firewall that goes with the application.\n\ni don't use a firewall. my issue with firewalls is that downlaod slows down and connecting to websites is not that fast.\n\nso to be safe it is recommendable to use 4 to 6 antispyware apps and 1 good antivirus app.

Depending on how good your IT Technician is, you might be able to use a proxy server.  The ones I like best are:\n\nhttp://www.hidemyass.com/\nhttp://www.hidemyass.co.uk/\nhttp://www.ieproxy.com/\n\nbut these might be blocked by now.  These ones aren't blocked at my local school or library:\n\nhttp://www.sneakyuser.com/\nhttp://www.proxyserver7.com/\nhttp://www.vproxy.be/\nhttp://www.cpr0x.com/\nhttp://www.bnetneeds.com/ri/cgiproxy/nph-proxy.pl\n\nHope these are useful.

I don't have any experience with that server, but I use windows, and if I hold down the "ctrl" key, it will override\nthe firewall. Give it a try, you have nothing to loose..good luck..
