At BS

<p>Do they frown upon the use of Limewire, Frostwire, etc. I do not use it much, I just use it if the music, movies, etc. I want is not on iTunes (which is rare)... It is illegal, and above that it likely has their IP stamp on it.</p>

<p>Because my cell phone provider does not offer a tethering plan (ability to use your phones network (3G) on your pc) which is frowned upon. </p>

<p>I don't use the latter for anything illegal or to go watch blocked sites. Sometimes when I am away from a wifi network and typing on that little phone gets irritating I just connect it up. </p>

<p>So does anyone know if BS frown upon this. I have no need to do it, it is really convenient at times, though.</p>

<p>Yes they frown upon it. All schools do because the school will get in trouble for it because it has their IP address on it.</p>

<p>At my current school, we can get in a s*** load of trouble for just having it on our school computers.</p>

<p>That's where option two comes into place I guess :). Using my phones ip.</p>

<p>Well at sps, limewire doesn't work.
So most people use Skreemr or get their friends to send it to them over aim.</p>

<p>Ahahahaha. Skreemr does not work with macs, well, for some reason. </p>

<p>Having a cell phone helps... It <em>can</em> be a double whammy though, breaking terms of contract with ATT while doing illegal things... :P</p>

<p>Ummm I have a mac and it works perfectly fine....</p>

<p>I don't know why it doesn't work with mine. It doesn't load, at all, but that is likely not the OS problem. It works on my Dad's dell, though.</p>

<p>what about torrents?</p>

<p>Last time I torrented a movies on my cell phone...</p>

<p>ATT calls... I get grounded for close to a month... I mean opening websites is Ok but downloading so many gigs is too blatant.</p>

<p>I am sure the school network is ok, though.</p>
