irc - Accessing freenode without ports


I'm at a computer where most ports are blocked. Is there still a way to access freenode to ask about programming questions through some webinterface?



Answer



Have you tried http://webchat.freenode.net/ ?
From what process explorer shows, it does not look like firefox uses any IRC specific ports but HTTPS.


For other IRC networks, you could give http://www.mibbit.com/chat/ a try. I couldn't get it to connect to freenode because mibbit seems to be explicitly blocked there.
