My school decided to surprise us this christmas with a brand new firewall which blocks fasttrack. Thing is, my mldonkey now barely connects and gift never does. Is there anything out there that can aid me in my pursuit to download? Thnx

gentle way: ask the admins
rude way: one portscan internal -> external and one external -> internal
but beware of the admins - the most firewall admins really dislike port scanning
