Hi I'm behind a firewall which I can't control, there for I can't open any ports in it and when ever I'm using a file sharing program it works really slow (round the 4kb). I Herad there are tunneling and socket programs that enables you to bypass the firewall. does anyone know anything about that??? Also if you have anyother idea on how to bypass/trick a firewall I'll be happy to hear about it.

:help:

Well, if you're able to remove this firewall and install another one, I would recommend ZoneAlarm. You can get it here:

Here you can get a freeware version for stand-alone users:

Can't you just deactivate that one firewall somewhere in the options of your router?

well if it;s really cheap maybe they want to prevent big bandwidth usage that way. if it's filtered at the routers of your isp you are out of luck. except for configuring your application to use a different port

I wouldn't suggest trying to bypass a school proxy server/firewall. For some reason the Network Admins seem to have issues with that, LOL.

Another reason not to is that by tunneling, you may be unintentionally opening a back door for hackers and viruses to move in

Until the network admin runs his report of 'connections that stay open for a long time' and busts you...
