Well, seeing as we are discussing AUB internet questions, here's one a tad random from the rest.
In AUB, skype, msn, and a ton load of other applications are blocked. I can understand they wouldn't want students to abuse the filters to download tons of porn. Even connecting to MMO's is not allowed.
So, how does one get bypass AUB's proxy to be able to access Skype, MSN, a ton load of applications, and MMO's?
If nothing else, just Skype. It's impossible to chat with anyone from AUB's network unless via facebook chat, and even that is blocked completely off in certain sections on campus.
I've heard of a program called Kerjodando which seems to get the job done, seeing as it renders the user anonymous to all proxies and in an environment where the proxy must know a certain code-number in order to access kerjodando's environment.

I even looked for a proxy-bypass website such as Kproxy.com but even those websites are in AUB's blacklists. Why? I wish I knew.
Someone please give me feedback. Thanks.
