puremhz.com — Ever try to run an application or visit a website on a corporate/educational network only to discover that the service is "filtered", "restricted" or outright blocked? Learn how you can set up a secure SSH tunnel and send any and all traffic through the tunnel to a "server" you've set up elsewhere, such as at your home internet connection.

Great, I want to waste my own home connection bandwidth. Maybe I could use this in reverse to tunnel and use my school's high speed connections to download warez! :P

Awesome, I can't read an article about how to get past filters because it's filtered.

I don't think you've quite understood the article, if you're tunneling your http connections through a SSH tunnel, you have a single SSH connection to the outside world, not multiple HTTP connections.Then again if your company's firewall blocks outgoing SSH connections then you're screwed.

probably not. The initating request has to come from inside the firewall ..

Nice BS post that isn't even related. It's taking me to a spam page... If you're looking for a tutorial on tunneling through firewalls using SSH and/or Putty to access blocked sites at work, or whatever check out this one: <a class="user" href="http://digg.com/d3158Y3" rel="nofollow">http://digg.com/d3158Y3</a>
