In an attempt to halt the spread of viruses, my university has blocked many aspects of our internet connection and in the process, have took out things such as torrents, remote desktop, games (like warcraft), etc.

I dont think they simply blocked the port because if I change the connecting port it still doesnt work.

Is there any way to get around this? For example me and my girlfriend talk all the time on CamFrog, but that is blocked now sad.gif. I have a fast dedicated server located in the USA. Can I somehow connect through there and get around this? What software would I need and how can I do it?

I tried using a socks4/5 proxy but that does not solve the problem. Do I need something like VPN?
