Sooo... seems like the port for DL is blocked by the firm I'm having a practice at.
Now what?

Chances are they block everything except web traffic. There's a few things you can try, but without access to certain services a lot of it won't work. Chances are, you shouldn't be playing DL at work anyways

Did you remember to make sure the client is using it for the proxy?

Proxy server could be an option.

No
You could always install tightvnc on your home machine, set it up to run on port 80, and play using your machine at home.
Not very fast, and wont work if they have a transparent caching proxy installed.
