For some reason teh comp my dad is runnig in his office wont send WUs out correctly, im guessing the hospitial blocks what ports it needs or whatever, the computer is HIS OWN computer so running seti on it is not against any policy or anything like that.

So is there some universial proxy server i can use to transmit these WUs from his comp, because i have like 50 that are just sitting there

He can install setiq on his machine and set it to use an open port.

no I would be setting it up because he can hardly use IE,

how would I go about getting setiQ and setting this up?

The above suggestions will work but only if the Setiqueue is setup on a computer not at the hospital. This will be necessary to "choose" which port you want to send on (i.e. port 80 or 443) Another option is to use a public Queue. I don't currently know of any permanent ones though that use those ports. I can bring mine back online if you need a place to send to.

Hope SQ does the job for you Adam. Otherwise you could always do some manual usb stick swapping to move the wu around...
