The cleanest way around such things is using a proxy server. This may or may not work but try it out (they may be blocking proxie access too):

A list of proxy servers in the US: http://www.samair.ru/proxy/19.htm
Basically with a proxy server, all your web requests go through the proxy and thus, will probably not be blocked. If this doesn't work, or if you don't have permissions to change proxy settings on your PC, then we can try other methods.

I would be surprised to see that a departement that block email access will not block configurations such as Internet option. I may be mistaken, don't know.

Can you access the Internet options? Just try to see if you do not have a limited account which prevent you to play with the configurations. If you can, I may go to that site and try few ones and give you one that might work. But if they catch you out, I don't think they will like that.

(note: You can download their stuff from home and take it to work yourself if access is blocked to those sites).
Another option would be http://www.openproxy.com
If all of these are blocked, then you can always set up your own somewhere ... but this would require some technical knowledge and a machine with an always on connection (broadband) and preferrably a static IP address (which doesn't change).
One thing you can do (example with a PC at home) is if that machine is running Windows XP or 2000, you can enable remote desktop and then connect to it from your work PC. This way, you can surf the web from your home PC without actually being at home! Hopefully your IT department hasn't blocked off the ports required for this kind of a connection.

In the long run I think it is not worth doing this Alpha as I think you may get yourself in trouble over it.

Acting like the gustapo certainly has it's negative effects in terms of team morale and employee satisfaction. One would HOPE, that most adults would be responsible/ethical and avoid extensive non-work activities on-line while they're busy at work. Besides if the work gets done, and done well - within budget guidelines, and allocated time frames, then why feel obligated to limit access? Any views?
