Er… I’m not sure what you mean exactly. What does your school use for filtering? Are you firewalled off? Which ports let outbout traffic pass through?

If you have access to a linux box outside of school, you may setup a squid proxy there and try ssh tunelling your traffic through that server. I have heard about this method working, but I never really tried it.

Either that, or set up a VPN server on a remote windows box, and connect through that. Your traffic will be routed via encrypte pptp tunell so you shold be able to slip through the filter.

You may also try using tor – it should have equivalent result as the above (emphasis on should – because I’m not really sure how exactly tor works with filters and firwalls).

I guess the question is: do you have admin privs on the school machine? Can you install software on it?
