Since all I'm doing is checking my webmail with it, and the way I'm doing it is by using a CGI web proxy, I don't think there's much danger. If they tell me to stop, then I will, but since they have no problem with the 50 or so webcomics and 8 webboards I visit, I don't see this being an issue.
tor is basically a clientside proxy that connects you anonymously (Read more on the protocol) through a series of chained tor servers (hosted by normal people like you and me) to provide a literal proxy chain between computers, bouncing off of one another. It worked for a local college campus that my friends lived on and I'm sure so long as you follow the instructions to the letter on the installation/use of the tor client, it should solve your problem while remaining well hidden from admins that like to check html accessed logs for proxy/security workaround sites.
The only caveat is that you would need to install privoxy, just remembered that, even if tor itself isn't required to be installed (it's just an exe, so you can just run it locally). Of course, you could turn both off when not in use and thus not have to worry about that.
Either way, there's another option from cgi proxying if things require it haha
That's the url for the test page to check the proxy is working. Just change the stuff after the http to whatever you want and it'll all go through the gala.www1 etc proxy. Or look at a couple of the other comments on this entry if you want something more anonymous. I have too many techies on my friends list :-)

Date: 2004-08-25 09:08 am (UTC)There's a section on CGI webproxies- I just picked one off the list and used it.
The link to the proxy I'm currently using is
