Hi,

I'm currently using Limewire Pro on my University Halls of Residence internet connection. We run at a sweet 10mbps. Perfect for using limewire. The only catch is...the server runs a permanent automatic monitoring service that watches all traffic in and out. I suspect that this monitoring service detects use of the Gnutella network and automatically cancels our internet connection for a week if we are ever caught. IS THERE ANYWAY TO ENCRYPT DATA PACKETS GOING IN AND OUT SO THAT THE NETWORK MONITOR CAN'T DETECT THEM?? I have looked into the possibility of setting up an SSH Tunnel, or perhaps changing to a different proxy. I am still too new at this game to try and do it myself and risk losing my internet connection permanently. DOES ANYONE HAVE ANY IDEAS??? I am desperate to liberate my hall from this oppression haha...i'm a big fan of having the freedom to share music with the world.

Thanks to anyone who can help

Lachlan
