hi.. I have some serious trouble getting my irc,icq,msn traffic to run through a proxy...

the reason is that the proxy here which I need to use to get online only accepts a few ports.. and 5190, 1863, and 6667 aren't among them! :S

so can I get my chat apps to run through e.g. port 80? or is there some sort of bouncer service available somewhere?

it's a squid proxy.. I've been told.. so maybe there's some way to cheat it?

regards zion1459

ok... got icq running..

I use Gaim... changed server to icq.login.com and used port 443 which logically enough is allowed by the fw...

just gotta figure out msn and irc now :)
