The Firewall works with services and ports. More then likely Quake server
works on a port that is not defined by the firewall administrator. There is
no way to get around it from your work location accept by convincing your
firewall administrator that playing Quake during working hours is a good
thing [a bit of sarcasm there].

it
that a firewall can stop you from connecting to a Quake server and
..say...a

around it?  Any input would be helpful. :)
