What is the site that you log into at home and sign into all the sites that your work restricts and then you can log into that site at work and have access?
It was mentioned on here a while ago and I can't seem to find it.
Thanks for your help!

it is easy to give a reason why you would want to use it.
Im sure that you could go to IT and get it unblocked to help you work from home if the need arises. Thats what i primarily use it for

here is how you get around it.
put vnc on your home computer, pick a port (default is 5800, good place to start)
setup you router to forward all port 5800 req to go to the ip of your computer. (192.168.0.2, example)
from work computer put in "your ip:5800" or whatever port you picked.
get your ip by going to www.whatismyip.com
I setup multiple computers by ports 5801, 5802, 5803, etc

Just a note that many employers have a policy that even attempting to bypass the proxy/firewall is grounds for termination. You may want to check first rather than find yourself unemployed.
