Hi im at work and i would really like to play eve at work. The only problem I have is there is a firewall setup that is not allowing me to connect to eve :(
Any programs or help would be most appreciated.
Thanks

Unless you are on very good buddy buddy terms with your sys-admins (and who knows, they may play Eve!!), you are hosed. To my knowledge there are no programs or apps that allow you to bypass a firewall - and hey, that's the whole reason behind firewalls afterall  .
On the otherhand, if you are very buddy, buddy with them...and they do play Eve.... and are happy for you to play Eve at work as well, then get them to open TCP Port 26000 on the f/w and you will be happily mining and running missions in no time.
Hope this helps (and yes, the sys-admin that I sit next too allows me to play....but then, as the other senior admin at work I allow him to do stuff as well  ).

You should be able to tunnel the proxy/firewall to play eve. I used an app called Sockscap or somthing to catch all the data from eve, then used a service called Your Freedom (http://www.your-freedom.net/) to run a local proxy and tunnel all traffic through port 80 (so it appears to be web traffic). Little bit on the tecnical side, but if you want to play eve at work that bad, its a valid solution.

Yep. Tunelling may works but that case pls let me know your IP 'cause your firewall is easy to hack 
If sys-admin uses a correct/good/usable proxy which is filtering the pockets about their header then it will see that isn't a http data and will drop it (these proxys are prevalent in offices). So in this (good) case EVE won't work if sys admin uses "zorp" or something like that "software filtering" proxy...
Anyway good luck when U talk to the admin may be U will make him to love EVE and bring a new player to the EVE universe

Not if the http connection is using SSL. Then the firewall has no idea what the data payload is.
