My university has been making it harder and harder to connect to IRC on any particular campus computer. On my own machine I have to enable a VPN each time I want to connect to IRC, and even then I know they were blocking certain ports for a while. I had to use port 6670 for a day or two.

Now they've put the kabash on their lab computers as well. So... this could go two ways. I either need to find a way to create a VPN on a lab computer, or find a way to bypass the firewall completely. I've been attempting to use my SSH client for that but it's been a no go. Since I'm not terribly literate on this, and google.com hasn't been very helpful, I would appreciate some advice on the matter.

EDIT: Nevermind, I found a way to rig it up. You can still post answers if you feel like it.

What i always used at college was CGI IRC, either get someone you know to host it or google for "CGI:IRC Login" and you'll find a list of them, finding one that lets you put your own server in is the hard part.

It would suck resources like crazy, and we already use a lot of them for the board. The Java client is really the best we can do, since it runs locally.

I thought you already knew that we (read me) had one.
