Ok, so my employer has our network pinned down tighter than latex on a fat woman and I really want to get onto AIM so I can stay in touch with people. The network blocks HTTP proxies, AIM Express, AIM Buddy, and I am just about out of ideas. If anyone has any ideas how to log into the aim network from a place like this let me know please. Any help is greatly appriciated.
