tech question

If work has blocked a website from viewing, would it still be ping-able from the work computers?

I can't connect to AIM through any AIM program I've tried... but the server that Trillian says it can't reach, login.oscar.aol.com, I can ping and traceroute to fine. Hrm. I'm wondering if work has blocked something so AIM can't be used from the computers here...

Hm. Changing to port 13 didn't help. (it was on 5190...?) Nor did asking AIM to auto-configure itself... it said it can't be reached.

Guess I'll try GAIM, too...
