JT_Chicago:

The supression of a fire wall is considered as a breach of security. I don't think you wanna do this.

Try a download version in CD format.

Might work.

yeah never try to do that especially if you work in the government. They monitor every keystroke even these words I'm saying to you.

They don't have someone reading the transcripts of my keystrokes but they will if they have a reason to.

they have little programs running on your computer if you work for the government that monitor alot of different stuff.

SShdClient <--> LocalProxy --> (secure encrypted channel across internet ) <-- SShd Server <--> remote secure Proxy

Of course, if they have the software that Jateeluv is referring to then you're fubared ... no encryption will help.

SSH is a protocol like FTP, HTTP, Telnet, etc ...

The advantage of this is that it's a secure protocol (handshake & encryption).

You need to install the SSHD server at home, as well as a restricted proxy (open only to itself, ie 127.0.0.1) ...

.. then at work you'll set your browser to use a local proxy (127.0.0.1) on port 80, but you'll need an SSH Client to intercept/redirect these requests (PUTTY is the most common SSHD client) ...

So in a nutshell,
Your browser tries to use a local proxy (127.0.0.1:80), but Putty sits on port 80, recognized the call and send your HTTP request securely to your remote SSHD server/proxy ...

.. but like Jate said the keystroke software will still show your every keystroke ..

.. this only bypasses firewall, routers logs to show a single secure connection with unknown requests.

So Lander I just need to get around a firewall for instant messenger and I don't think they would care even if they found out at this place. So what exactly would I do?

Same exact thing altice, except you'd configure AOL IM to use a HTTP proxy, instead of changing your browser settings.

Brock,
MOST places don't use the keystroke software because really ... who wants to read all that crap - they're full of a million different reports, surfing, emails, etc ...


But IT IS VERY VERY EASY for any junior Netorking IT guy to read a firewall/proxy/router log to see who's surfing where ...

.. it's worth looking into for job security sake.

I COULD NEVER work somewhere where I could not place my bets. I would miss every single good number. I place all my bets at work Mon-Fri. As a matter of fact, my boss is standing right over my shoulder as I type this.

If your company doesn't want you to use the Internet, there is nothing you can do about it.
You must remember that your Surfing activities can be tracked very easily.

Check with you company's policies regarding Internet usage, otherwise they may use it against you.

And yes, I am an IT Dude..

Every company has different policies. Usually companies send out notices about Internet usage.

Many companies do have the keystroke recorder and tracers onsite. Whether or not they use them, depends on a situation.

As of today, my company has not used any of these tracing software.

My company just sent out an email about using P2P networks. Anyone using these can get canned. I think they were contacted by some record company lawyers.
