how can I transfer files off my dumbed-down NT laptop?

Do any of you know how I might be able to transfer files off of my NT laptop -- our IT department has really dumbed down the machine and disabled all services that might have helped me here, and I think I've tried everything. Microsoft Networking is gone, I've even tried the infrared port.
In addition, no drivers can be added (administrator only).

Simple TCP/IP access is on, and I'm trying to figure out how this might be used. I've got access to some linux machines at home -- is there some way I could rig this up so that it would ftp files out?

THanks for your ideas!
 
set up ftpd on your linux machine and use the 'ftp' client built into windows via cmd.exe - edit your inetd.conf file on your linux box, remove the # from the 'ftpd' line, save the file and HUP your inetd process. you should be good to go.
