removing firewall

hey i use the school computer in the morning and it has like a firewall...i really need help in taking it off it is the one that say novell manager.. what shold i do to deactivate it!:bnghd:

School computer? They have firewalls for a reason

Why do you want to take it off?

If your on a school computer that is on a network, I am sure your not going to beable to deactivate it.

i know they do.. i mean i know a good bit about computers but i just cant get this friewall off....i want to check my myspace that is the main reason!! lol

jade,
I'm a technician for a public school district running a Novell network and blocking myspace.com at the filter. Its there for a good reason...please don't break the computer.
Thank you

well, it depends on what and where the firewall is.

Is it a softwear firewall local to your computer? Just control-alt-del, find the process and close it down. (did this at school when i went)

If it is a hardwear firewall, try to find the brand and model. then go to the manufactures website and find default ip and login. There is a very goos chance the person who put it in didn't change the password. go in and excempt your computers ip.

Another thing you can try, o to google.com. from there try going to myspace.com. It can often workaround the firewall with that-hehe
