CaptainSauce Posted April 5, 2006 CID Share Posted April 5, 2006 As i have brought up before, the security at our school is pretty strict. They block every friggin thing and its extremly anoying... is there ANY way possible to get AIM or AIM express or anything so that i can socialize with my friends, because i have block scheduling and 3 out of 4 blocks i do NOTHING and would prefer to talk to friends and relitives. If all else fails ill just go buy a little flash drive and install AIM on that or something but i prefer to try to get around this security crap and get it so i can save cash. Any ideas anyone?

Any ideas anyone? probally not because the proxy server that your school uses blocks the aim port, 5190. you can try a few things called anonymous browsers. my brother uses this one, http://www.bitty.com/manual/?contentvalue=kevinrose&contenttype=digg;username and he is able to go to any site, with it. as far as getting aim or aim exresss to work, i wouldn't even wast your time, because what it is going to take to do it, is not worth the risk. though if you can dial out using a dial-up modem or your "CELL PHONE" hint hint then you could do it.

Swimmer Posted April 5, 2006 CID Share Posted April 5, 2006 it is still going to require network access.. so if they blocked AIM.. then it doesnt matter where it is physically installed.. the other thing that you could do is vpn into your home computer.. if they have the ports open.. I would have to look but i think VPN uses UDP and you have to have IPSec pass through and the microsoft protocol allowed.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dlewis23 Posted April 5, 2006 CID Share Posted April 5, 2006 yeah i figured much so. if i installed AIM on a flash drive, i could use it through that couldnt i? no, because the proxy/firewall will block the traffic over the aim port. they actually block all traffic, except port 80 inbound traffic. if you can some how get a line outside like over dial-up or a cellphone, they you can do what ever you want.

Swimmer Posted April 5, 2006 CID Share Posted April 5, 2006 damn that sucks the big one.. could you proxy on to a machine via port 80? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dlewis23 Posted April 5, 2006 CID Share Posted April 5, 2006 damn that sucks the big one.. could you proxy on to a machine via port 80? no because that would require outbound 80, and thats blocked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richcornucopia Posted April 5, 2006 CID Share Posted April 5, 2006 If you live close to the school you could setup a wifi network if you have like a laptop or psp or something because if everything is blocked on your network then you need to find a different connection at school.

Swimmer Posted April 5, 2006 CID Share Posted April 5, 2006 80 is for http.. so you cant surf the internet? you need udp53, tcp 80, and tcp 443 to surf.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dlewis23 Posted April 5, 2006 CID Share Posted April 5, 2006 80 is for http.. so you cant surf the internet? you need udp53, tcp 80, and tcp 443 to surf.. the proxy server handels all that, and then transfers everything over port 80, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark_Matter Posted April 5, 2006 CID Share Posted April 5, 2006 You might be able to use a program called SIMP by Secway. I use to use this program for MSN Messenger to encrypt my conversations they have a prog for AIM also. If i remember right it uses you localhost 127.0.0.1 for the proxy and uses port forwading. Might be worth checking out. For MSN it uses port 11863 not sure if the ports are the same for all Messengers or not. http://www.secway.fr/us/products/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
