at work i am behind quite a firewall. what i want to know is which P2P client could i somehow get to run through this firewall, kazaa worked for a wile, but was blocked. I have triad frost, but with no luck, tried limewire, xmule, but i have no joy getting through the firewall. I thought socksify may no the trick somehow, but the is problems resolving host names, and in a lot of programs, i cant always change the site names to be IP's.
Any one got any ideas? preferably a client for linux, but if there is one that works under windows, that'll help aswell.

If they blocked the ports there is a reason.

if i were u i woudn't use p2p at work.

If they catch you they will surely fire you.

ask your network administrator. he'll let you know what you need to know.
