    Hey guys,
    I have an issue with an overbearing parent who uses a sniffer. I used to play World of Warcraft but I got a little too into it and played too much. My stepdad then took away all of my rights to play the game and set up a network sniffer. It has been almost half a year since that incident and i feel i am ready to play under control. I asked him if i could and he just straight up rejected it. I know i can play under control but he doesn't have the same confidence. I was wondering, as i know he has a network sniffer set up, if there was any way that i could get around it and make world of warcraft show up as a different program or not show up at all.
    thanks for any help! I really wanna play again but my dad won't even give me a chance so i have to do it in secret.

    Don't believe help is forthcoming.
    I know that I won't want to get a parent angry by helping to get around their measures.

    Disobeying your parent would enforce your over bearing parents mistrust of you. Honestly, your best bet perhaps is to mention the parental limit tools blizz has, and see if your parental unit would be ok with you playing if those were applied, i believe they can limited the hours your allowed to play with that option. Anyhow, other then that you should keep your nose clean as they say, and you probably wont find much help here.
