MSN Messenger behind campus firewalls?

[archcommus]

So I've finally found a good app that has very good video and audio conferencing capabilities - MSN Messenger 7. Works very well when we are both at home.

Now, what are the chances this capability of Messenger will be blocked by my college's network firewall? And if it is would there be any way to circumvent it?

It won't be. At least not if your campus IT guys are actual human beings.

Interesting...it says to order, but then it says you can create a free account - so is it free or not?

And this proggy helps bypass firewalls ONLY for video and audio conferencing?

Ive used realtunnel on work. its free and bypasses the firewall for MSN. Albeit it might be a bit unstable and log you out now and then. But you're able to reconnect withing 1-2 minutes again.
