IIWY, I'd install your own proxy, and have it proxy through whatever proxy
you must use. (I don't think you described your proxy situation
particularly clearly, however, so it is possible I misunderstood your
situation.) Then you and your roommate use your own proxy. This has the
benefit that you can install a caching and/or ad-zapping proxy.



To clarify my situation:
The whole building is an ethernet based sub-net (mask 255.255.255.128 I think). The only box connected to both the intranet and the internet is this pos called rockbox (ip 66.112.238.1 I think - crackers welcome :). We are issued dhcp. However, before we can send to anywhere outside the building, we must open up a web browser, which opens an https login with out account name/password. Then, it seems, this rockbox proxy allows packets to get through (maybe its just a firewall not a proxy -- I have never dealt with this kind of stuff before). Thats it pretty much.


Thank you for your help,
Alex
