Does anybody know a good way to reroute the second life connection through a usable proxy server? Better yet, anybody have a proxy server they could lend me the use of?

Thanks,

Maybe pay attention in school and play when you get out? Kidding, try googling for 'proxy servers'. There should be a few sites up with port numbers and IPs.

SL does not support proxies. The field is there in the settings but it's just for show. What you could do is try HTTP Tunnelling... but YMMV, some proxies have anti-tunnelling features.
