I want to use IRC/SSH at school but both seems to be blocked. I assume they blocked all ports outside of 80 and 8080. Is there anyway to get around this? Maybe a proxy? How would I set this up?

      That implies that their organization allows adding net devices without authorization. If irc is blocked, modifying the network more than likely is too

      +1 on this. Easiest way to get around school filters - used to have this setup when I was in high school (well, OpenVPN, but same thing just different VPN tech).
