I am now at college, and the college I attend (Central Penn) has the internet configured through a proxy server. I have configured IE to run through this server, but I play a online game, Ragnarok Online(RO).
Most of you probably have never heard of RO, but suffice it to say that none of its standard options cover this contingency. Is there a way to default ALL internet activity through the proxy server, or just configure the RO program through the server. Outside of the proxy server, the internet goes extremely slow, like .3KB/sec, if at all

LOL, boy if I was sending my kid to college to play games, I would not send him.. LOL
To answer your question, there is reasons why colleges like cenn pen to things like that, to provent people like you consumming bandwithd to play games while other need it to do real homework and research. If you want to play games I would suggest getting your own DSL line or use dial-up

I play RO online too and if you cant play on the main servers, then try playing on a private server, (It is free). Other than that, try contacting Gravity and asking them what you need know or do to connect to their servers via a proxy server.
