So my university uses impulse to try to block bittorrent and make everyone install AV and antispyware programs. Problem is, the antispyware causes hiccups and the university couldn't be bothered to allow more than one antispyware program. Not only that, but the bittorrent blocking doesn't work, and I hate impulse on general principal (intrusive, worthless bullshit, to protect retards). So, this is a shot in the dark, but after several failed google attempts, I figure it's worth a try. Does anyone know of a way to subvert/hack/neuter impulse so it work, or does anyone know how the impulse system works and a way I could "impersonate" it so the university thinks it's running? in b4 trolls, but let them come, I need some luls too.

Enjoy getting kicked out. Otherwise, run Linux or Mac and you won't have to deal with it.

haha I did that in college and they took away my net access, but since I had a laptop with wifi it took me out of commission for all of 2 minutes.

I don't really know what this Impulse thing is, but I'm wondering if you could just get a cheap crappy computer, install the software on it so it can do its reporting or whatever, and you just connect your main computer alongside it, or maybe through it?

yea I have a second computer hooked up to my main one with a crossover cable, and I would do that, but I thought it might lag/cause problems with bittorrent and internet gaming. Will it?

Probably, but that sounds like the only way around this BS. I haven't had problems with something that bad, as my University still allows BT. They do have an upload limit of 2GB though, and when I forget and go over, I get banned, but then I clone my MAC and lay low for a few days and it's all good after 72 hours.
