Damned Proxies

Hey All

I am at university and am wandering if there is any software out there that will help me get round a proxy server. This is so that I can download using bit torrents.

Nice one

Proxy servers are established to help maintain and secure your university's network. I highly doubt that it is within your "acceptable use" handbook to bypass the proxy server. It is designed to montior and restrict internet access where needed. Is there a specific reason that you want to bypass.
