Proxies

[Jordan]

Help! I connect to AOL Instant Messanger through my
school but they blocked the host (login.oscar.com). is
there anway to connect through an anonymous proxy or
anything like that?

Thanks

If your school has blocked IM, you need to talk to them if you require
access.

Alternatively schools sometimes allow you to use HTTP
Tunnels which allow IM. Try Hopster (search for it).

For MSN Messenger you can also use www.e-messenger.net
