I know there was a thread on this a while ago but I need a more indepth discussion.

Basically I'm looking for a good way to get party poker working through the college firewall which is blocking it. The IT services people seem really strict so I don't think they will let me through if I just ask them.

I've been looking into Firewall tunnelling (namely this site: http://www.buzzsurf.com/surfatwork/ ) but the system they describe is really complicated and I don't have a home computer which I can use as a server.

Is there an easier/better way? Please keep in mind that security is a big issue because there is money involved.

Thanks for your help.
