Default IRC at school.

Hi,

My school seem to have blocked IRC ports at school. Is there a way out of this? I want to access IRC at school.

Any help would greatly be appreciated. Thanks.

Your only option would be to request to have the port it uses unblocked... We will not assist in circumventing your school's firewall, as it would violation of the forum rules.

most school ISP's block all ports that are not web, or email the only way you could solve the problem is to request that the ports be unblocked

Sorry. I wasn't asking for anyone to hack or change the ports at my school site, i was just wondering if there was a better alternative to IRC use at school. I know the forum rues.

I guess there is no way to fix this.... Thanks for your help anyway.
