Running Ms behind a proxy server/gateway?

Yeah so our college forces us to run everything on the internet behind a proxy gateway (mcafee security gateway) with a unique user/pass for each student.

I'm wondering if MS is gonna be able to run behind this?
Stuff that works: Downloading most files from the internet, youtube, world of warcraft
Stuff that doesn't work: Steam, torrents downloads, adult sites

Couldn't get the nexon downloader to run so am currently downloading via the mirrors on Nexon's site.

Not sure if I'll be going anywhere with this. Thoughts?

There are ways around it... but im not sure if it follows your schools ToS.
Other than that im sure you can still run MS

We can use the TOR browser as a workaround, but I can't run MS through TOR so yeah..

And you'd probably soon find yourself on them.
