k9 web security and torrenting?

is anyone aware of how to download torrents while 9k web protection is installed on their computer? I have it on mine, and it plocks p2p sites like that. If ya can help, thanks.

 

still need help. is it possible i could get around it using a different os, such as running linux on virtualbox?

 

Just look in the K9 security settings, gotta be someway to stop it blocking all the sites.

You could consider Kaspersky as an alternative, that is rated far better than most Antiviruses.

 

im not using it for antivirus, i have comodo for that. i have it because my parents put it on, and i want to bypass the p2p part of it. ive tried, and i cant download torrents with my psp, so im back to my pc. theres a long, convoluded process to re-registering it in my name, but i dont want to do it. perhaps, i can download it though another os, but i havent tried yet.

 

Oh, it's Internet filter software.

Well you could just uninstall it as they're generally a waste of time/money unless you're too young to be looking at porn and such.

Is it possible to uninstall?

 

Have you tried using a proxy?

 

yeah, see my problem is, it wont let me use proxies as well :/
a think ill just ask my parents to disable it. wont work for a while though, as im not even supposed to have pc privelages atm because i didnt do well in chemistry
