We came back from winter break to find our school has blocked access to all Gnutella clients (and someone also said a lot of the torrent clients are somehow banned too). I tried the whole thing with a proxy but it still shows me behind a firewall. I got a program called FreeCap and used the proxy in that and ran LimeWire and still no success.

I assumed this meant they were blocking the necessary ports but I saw that link to http://www3.limewire.com:6346/ and it worked, so that can't mean the port is open. I saw other things regarding port forwarding but all of that looks like something you'd do if you had your own router, not going through the school's like we essentially are.

Any ideas?
