Flash blocked at work

Is there any workaround for viewing Flash sites since all Flash is blocked where I work? I don't even necessarily care about the animation but the website in question doesn't offer a way to skip on without Flash.

Re: Flash blocked at work

do you know how they're blocking it? is it just not installed, or are all .swf extensions blocked?

It's not installed. Every time I try to download it, it says 'failed'. When I asked why that keeps happening I was told that they've blocked Flash (although there is 1 computer in the building that they forgot to do that on).
