how do you bypass INTERNET SECURITY AT WORK?
 

I want to run my thunderbird email at work off my usb, but they've locked out ports to prevent things like this. how can i sniff out the ports or bypass this and also use utorrent at work?

Uh... if they've restricted access for certain ports, you gotta hack into your company's firewall to change the policies. Good luck with that.

But unless someone knows exactly what kind of security is implemented for your company's network, nobody's going to be able to give you a proper answer.

You're probably better off trying to setup a remote connection to your home computer.

I think someone has mentioned it before, but perhaps something like LogMeIn that gives you remote control capability of your PC at home. Probably the safest bet for both yourself and your company.

Otherwise, try use a proxy server for your browsing needs. I personally wouldn't torrent at work...but that's just me. There's a reason why they locked it down (to prevent non business related internet traffic) and trying to bypass it to run high bandwidth apps like torrents is just going to get you into trouble.

the USB thing.. is a GPO most likley.. thats what i have set up..

So you need Admin access to the AD to change that..


as for downloading at work.. not recomended..

be smart..

Login to your home PC..

I have a friend now who got that rogers USB stick for online.

All he does is just bring that, and his laptop. wala internet access!

dont tamper with your work PC, period.

LOL using Utorrent at work..you want to get fired pretty bad eh?

i have my office network on one port, and a dedicated shaw connection on another port

I've had a few instances where workers "accidentally" had their torrents running on their laptops while at work, and the problem with our Shaw connection was if the upload bandwidth is saturated, the entire connection goes to the shitter... so everyone else in the office would have problems retrieving email or even loading up web pages.

Fortunately I had a means of figuring out which machine was causing all the traffic, so I just gave them a slap on the wrist. ;)

my friends used ubc vpn =)

why run the risk of being fired.. ?? lol.. even if you hack there ports open, if they monitor the server once in a while they will notice you ass and block you ip or some how possible find out its YOU pulling some haxing shit on them lol... i doubt they will let you off easy.... Trust me man it literally took about 10minutes for my schools network bastards to find out im playing on PokerStars.. they cut me off for the day and then blocked my access to pokerstars on their network :( ..

my god why the hell would you want to download torrents at WORK? thats permaban right there man. downloading torrents is like masturbating: do it at home.

sleep with the administrator

hope your coworker see this thread

lol. it's simple. be the IT guy or IT manager of the company and you will have the control. ;)
