I live in the dorms at my school and have invested around $2000 to mine.  I ran my machine for about 2 weeks and then had my internet shut off because mining was not allowed.  I called and they turned it back on, but if I try to mine again, they will will shut it off.  Is there anyway to work around this?  Can I mask what I'm doing?  How exactly was I caught?

If you must then point to port 80 rather then the default port if your pool of choice supports that.

My question is, do they have that in a written policy? Is the motivation perhaps not permit mining because of the network load or is it power costs? Perhaps you can work something out.
