Well, it is possible to come across pages that have FTP links. That's how I was able to download at least to episode 4 of Chobits.
And, another post:

I just noticed...
Omega Dog "theme" is from cool cool toon *worships*
Heh, thanks! [Je je -- también te gusta Cool Cool Toon, Toxico?] Yeah, I've actually mostly been using images from Cool Cool Toon for the few avatars and tags I've been using, the first which were taken directly from the CCT GD-ROM and cropped (and also somewhat modified).
Whee, now to get back on topic ;) --
TK, there might always be the option of IRC -- I don't know if firewalls block file transfers through it. But, since finding the files on fservs is kind of a daunting task (and, I don't know if Fruits Basket is even up anymore) -- what could be done is to have you and another person connect to the same IRC server (first seeing when both are online, say through AIM or ICQ), then do a DCC session (if your university allows it) to directly send the files to you. I know the university anime club library has at least a few episodes of fansubbed Fruits Basket in DivX format (though, I believe we're missing some episodes in the middle), so I could at least try seeing which episodes I could send you. (The anime club secretary, which handles the anime club collection, lives two doors down from me, so it wouldn't be much of a problem.)
Or, for anyone that has all of the episodes -- would you also be willing to transfer files via this method? [Assuming the firewalls don't automatically block the method?]
So... IT'S "FLITZ TIME" EVERYBODY! | NEXT STAGE IS 7 |

You should ask Rid or someone on ICQ/IRC/AIM/etc. to hook you up with some stuff.
You should still try direct connect since it doesn't operate in the same way as those file sharing programs and might work around college protection schemes, although that might be some sort of legal issue with the college that I don't know about.
If your college blocks stuff like kazaa, then I would guess they block file transfers through IM and ICQ too since I know mine does.
If you want a site you can download stuff from, this one used to be good, back when file space websites were in vogue. I haven't really used it much lately but it seems like it still updates.
Direct connect won't work, either. Or at least nothing this technogeek does can get it to work. And ICQ, AIM... all those.. I can't connect with them either. Their firewall is really being stubborn.
