Network exploits of wchill

I found out a month ago that my school district's hardware firewall was improperly configured. Hence, it intermittently allows access to secure Facebook (with https). The reason why it isn't always blocked/allowed isn't clear (expiring DNS queries?)
Working on an elaborate load balancing downloading solution.
Using VMware, TinyXP, a shared folder and PDAnet as well as my LTE smartphone, I can download two files at once from free file-hosting sites (and reset my phone's IP address to continue downloading while I wait for the waiting period to expire on my sticky IP).
Vuze is set to bind 10.1.2.3;net4;eth3;eth7;eth28 (this allows me to pull data through my phone, Wi-Fi, Ethernet, and networked VM. (Usually I have access to two of the four - my phone is either connected to the VM or to my laptop directly, and Wi-Fi/Ethernet usually go through the same connection).

Time to download tons of video (like both seasons of Rosario + Vampire with both subs and dub audio in 1080p with 10-bit encoding!) and re-encode them for my phone. :S MKVs choke on my phone...

In other news, no huge Christmas gifts. :/ I myself gave an iPod touch, even though I hate iOS devices to death...
