Ulrik Posted March 8, 2006 Share Posted March 8, 2006 Okey here the deal: I got to work today and they informed me that they have blocked MSN Messenger on all our 93 shops. So i cannot connect to msn or my hotmail, and the MSN download pages are down. At my shop when everything is done and such, we like to sit at MSN sometimes and talk to each other... They have a big Firewall/Router at the "HQ" and each store have a: ZyXEL Prestige 600 Series (ADSL Modem) SonicWALL TZ 170 (Firewall/Router) We have ADSL from "Telia". Now is there ANY way i can bypass this and connect to my MSN Messenger again ? And no Web MSN Messenger dosent work... Would be very happy if somone could help me out here.... Mabye to "hack" my SonicWall router and forward a new port or something ? Thanks alot !! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dash Rendar Posted March 8, 2006 Share Posted March 8, 2006 Have a go with http://webmessenger.msn.com. It works over HTTP, so may not be blocked by your firewall. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michael Posted March 8, 2006 Share Posted March 8, 2006 http://webmessenger.msn.com/ Failing that download Trillian and see if that works - it depends what they have done to block you really. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
