I need a proxy that can get past my schools firewall, the damn dansguardian is on it.

What you want to do is chain the proxies and make a connection through the chain. In most cases the most appropriate program to do so is:

http://www.htthost.com/httport3snfm.exe

What you do is input the settings for your schools proxy, then tell it to use a proxy on port 80 for external use.

If you have it setup right you endup with a listenning port on local host which you can point your Browser, IRC client, or pretty much whatever you want through.

Otherwise you might like to use a CGI Proxy, CGI::IRC or WebMessenger depending on your needs.

i've got the same problem, however mine blocks websites such as www.hotmail.com and the sutch, i'm wondering is there any way to encrypt data to and from the proxy to bypass the school... https:// sites work fine @ school

It is NOT the encryption that does it, its the fact the school blocks certain addresses, and in your case it blocks http://www.hotmail.com. There are a number of methods to bypass it, one of them is the long ip method, which you should be able to find on Fravia's site. The method works fine in most situations, and is quite alot more dificult to block.
