Talk to your boss or lump it. If it was meant to be broken around they would have given you the access. They don't NOT give you the access just so you can break through it and then get bolocked for going against their wishes.
Yes, you may like some free time to yourself, but as far at their concerned it's not their problem during their working hours.

@arien, https didn't work.
Tried that.
@kingbooker, I can't get sacked. I've got an immunity card
Sometimes I need to access accounting sites and they're blocked. Calling up the IT department ends with "Sorry we can't do anything about that, it's automatic" wtf?
@deadulus, You don't know my office. The IT department decided to disabled USB access one day out of the blue. After telling them that WE are the most secure department in the whole company they said no. So we provided a letter from a Director and they still didn't want to move.
They only gave back access after the CEO almost had them fired. The IT department think they're Gods.
This is nothing to do with free time. I work from 7 am until 7pm (I finish at 2:30 but work over time). This has to do with legitimate websites being blocked and in my field of work, every single minute affects progress.
I work for a top 20 company.
@paul, my boss is the one who asked me to search around! He's the head of the department to and we're sick of the IT department.
I will try your portable firefox idea though.

I had a thought about firefox, I doubt it'll work because they also have exe limitations.
They didn't block exe's, rather they're ALL blocked, and have a list for accepted apps.
