There was no "system administrative" decision at our 'school' not to allow irc. I am in a *college* they don't care what we are doing and there is no apparent rule against using irc. Other people are behind a firewall at work and it's simply because some things are blocked to protect the computer from malicious intent, that doesn't mean to say we can't find a workaround for it.
And AAAAAAAAA *IS* neccesary because I have rarely wanted an answer as much as this and not gotten it even though other people knew it. And something i forgot to mention in the other post is that people are being sent to other threads to have their question answered when there is no answer there!
