Can VPN get around blocked ports?

[alanbrenton]

If I subscribed to the VPN service posted here, would I be able to get around some of the block ports / corporate firewalls?

I forgot what the ports were blocked and will have to look them up on the sticky notes I wrote them on.

Thanks.

If you use this to bypass corporate security you might be getting a call. Most good IS dept. monitor all ports and would see trafic from your ip address .

+ most corporate firewalls block most unused ports so people can't change the port to something random

Thanks guys. I thought it was possible but it was good I confirmed first before I get into trouble.
