Regedit

Someone tought me how to bypass a firewall here at the office,it works I was able to use MIRC,yahoo messenger and view websites...I was able to use it for a couple of weeks and now it is not working....How's that? did the administrator change some settings? How do I bypass it again?

well this is the dummest thing i have ever heard, it can be done but only aginst some really stupid admins.
i will not however tell you how to do it because they are disabled for a reason, and if you break it then you might get fired.

ok, I already know how to do it, just wondering why is it not working anymore?

maybe the admin noticed what you are doing and blocked it, this only works on dumb firewalls maintained by dumber admins.

Got another stupid question, I was able to use MIRC before and it was able to use a server port that works with it...It seems like It doesnt let me in to any of the port numbers...Did the administrator blocked all ports? Is it possible to block all ports?

First of all, you shouldnt be bypassing firewalls at work because theyre up for a reason. Not exactly too smart. Anyway, its hard to tell you what happened since we aren't your admin and youre not supplying any information that we could utilize to give you a response. But i would guess that the settings had changed and that he/shes buffing up security which is a good thing and maybe he/shes learing something. Atnyway, what do you need YIM and mIRC for thats work related anyway.

Please don't do this sort of thing..........you will get fired!

Remember if you can get out, you are leaving the door open for stuff to get in :(

Another thing to consider that a firewall(s) is not the only tool your Admins will have.

As for it "not working" anymore.....this could just be the Admins shutting down ports that are not required for business applications in response to all the exploits and malware that has been going around.....several of them will try to use P2P connections.

Yes you can "block all ports" :) but only if you want to totally isolate the computer. Something obviously has to be open for network connectivity? Also you can control traffic passing through ports, and using them for unauthorised activity.

Ask your friends (DISCRETELY!!!) if they are also blocked.....if the answer is "yes" then what you describe is probably normal network security hardening. If the answer is that they can....you have obviously been detected and targetted?

Take care!

Unless if you want to get flamed a lot or even worse get banned. Please read the F.A.Q. before you post anymore questions. If you really need money and dont want to get fired you should stop doing what you're doing.

Just my advise.

[ Many people on this board are admins and do not approve of what you are doing. ]

i use mirc to pacify my boredom, works sucks in here it bores me.... i tried all the computers here and all of them doesnt bypass ports in mirc anymore :(

Then get a different job, quit bitching and above all, STOP MAKING A FOOL OF YOURSELF.

Amplifiedgirl ,

You said that you tried all the local computers?............did you sign in as yourself?.......if your answer is "yes" this proves nothing. That is one of the ways I would do it (to block and trap you), you have a profile.

Can another person log in and use MIRC? if they can, you do have problems......if not, it is just a sensible improvement in security at your site? As I mentioned, there have been a lot of exploits and attacks using these vectors recently.

The problem is not your Administrator or your work, it is the silly script kiddies writing this sort of stuff.........they are the ones who have spoiled your fun? so if you have brothers , sisters, nephews or nieces that are into it..............give them a slap...and another from me.

Take care

And it might be a good season for job hunting?

BTW: Please give my love to "pixelrockchick"

i think other administrator block other ports for a reason, like example security porpuse or anything..... but bypassing firewalls is sort of criminal offence in your company or in your work even in our shool they block als those kinds of applications..and nihil and others is right if your bored at work maybe take another work !!!! if your to ask me i said it would be great to work there cause all you have to do is sit there relax and act only if you wanted or you are given orders other people work with both their physical and mental abilities just to earn money for a living even if they are underpaid...well you can do other things if yopur bored try to bring books and read somethin or get some software games and play it while your at work.... another thing like wat nihil said if you are using your own profile to log in to the computer i know for know that your admin know what you have been doing thats y they block those ports and that it wat admins do prefent attackers to come in and out to their network.

hi guys
amplifiedgirl,
we probably all do or have done some jobs which were not that exciting.
personaly had and still have a job where i have few hours a days to kill-practicly nothing to do.not that i am lazy or something -its a nature of job.
so instead doing nothing about it i got interested in computers and read the books, explored help buttons on pc, read more books and learnt something i was interested in it-and at the same time not neglecting my work.
so if you start learning about how he/she blocked this and that and learn little bit more about pc and os you would be able to maybe pinpoint in your organization that administrating pc is not that secure as should be and save some headaches for your company in a long term.maybe you will score a much better and revarding job not just trying playing games and chat at work.
get motivated and move.good luck

and for you guys as i tried to suggest in one of post this is another exaple when people get revarded with number of post(in this case 4) for what??????????
have a good day all

let's not focus on the negative here.

Amp, I think what you're doing provides job security for your administrator. After all, that's why he/she's there right? There's no telling how much overtime he/she will get when you inadvertently download a worm and it propogates all over your network, causing all kinds of problems for your co-workers who are actually there to **gasp** dare I say it...work.

Anyways, If you think you've pulled the wool over your admin's eyes, I'd think again (This should be quite obvious being that these ports/services are being blocked now). Most likely, your activity has been or will be recorded in some type of logs, whether it be the firewall's logs or an IDS/IPS.
Your admin may even be watching your connection attempts in order to isolate 'who' exactly is trying to bypass his/her security.

Anyways, my point is simple, if you really don't like your job, then I suggest you just keep on doing what you're doing. :D

Wow yet another stupid thread where somebody wants to be taught how to waste time and get paid for it. And of course all the people who help her will get blamed by her when she looses her job. Next thing you know you will be mad because the boss wont let you install kazaa and infect the company network with virii.

As mentioned before, it is a normal security network. But I dod not recommend you to do that, becoz, if you get fired, than you feel your life is over. If you still do so, I guess that you try to hack into other people pc.

....

sort of off topic, i guess, but why did you name this thread "Regedit". I dunno, maybe i read too fast but i didnt see anything about Regedit in here.
