    I remember seeing a post about a way to use IRC behind a firewall using a proxy. Hows this done ? all of a sudden the IRC ports are blocked on our firewall frown.gif
    Edit: i found the post about cgi irc and blekko, still i would be nice to be able to use mIrc. any ideas?

    I remember trying to do this years ago and found the easiest solution was to telnet to a shell and irc from there, what ports do you have open exactly? If it is port 80 only chances are your fux0red

    yeah, but that costs money ;p

    Or else a lot of effort setting up new trial accounts.
