    i have been trying to use limewire on the school network but it doesnt work :( the network administrator has blocked it. is there a program that gets past the firewall or whatever he uses, while still being anonymous? :)

    no program that can do it. you can risk using bittorrent.. and try not to get caught. you'll only get a warning first time caught.

    NBR will not help you get around your school's networking policies.
