Hey Guys,
I just received the beta keys to Neverwinter MMO and want to download the client. If I try to use direct download then I will get this message :

Virus Download Blocked

Download of the virus has been blocked in accordance with company policy. Please contact your system administrator if you believe this is in error.
File name: NW.1.20130309a.7.exe
While if I try to download through torrent then my school's firewall would prevent it :mad:.
I heard something about port forwarding to go through the firewall. Is it possible to do so if I dont have access to the router ?

No, it's not possible.

The only thing you could do is download it on a different computer and transfer it to yours via flash drive.

Also, it's not port forwarding that would help. Their network policy probably blocks exe files.

FYI, questions on how to circumvent your schools network security are against forum rules.
