I've found a handy little tool called httptunnel 
(http://www.gnu.org/software/httptunnel/httptunnel.html) to be very 
effective at circumventing any packet filtering (especially through a 
proxy). It can tunnel any service as far as I know. I use it for SSH 
over HTTP.

Not sure if you guys have ever heard of it/used it. :)
