Well, putting yourself behind a firewall effectively puts you behind a pseudofirewall (barring NAT, if you've got that running)

If you have NAT running, you shouldn't have a problem.

As for BitTorrent (I'm guessing that's what you're asking about) and proxies, take a gander at this:

thanx but how can i get NAT running ??? i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif

Are you the network admin?

It's a matter of putting NAT software on your server. Not having a router makes things slightly inconvenient, but hey, I've got a setup that does NAT using a server.

You'll need to provide us more details about your network for us to help on this part.

Why are you behind a SOCKS 4 proxy server? Is it run by your ISP?

[Farse]

yes it is

Does your ISP only allow connections through the proxy? (If yes, what a weird ISP!)

If your answer is yes...
Ummmm. Since your ISP controls the proxy, there may not be much you can do at this point except to work with your iSP.

If your answer is no...
You shouldn't have problems connecting...
