Transparent Proxy Question...

Ive been using the search feature and google now for a while but found nothing specific. I have a friend in the usa who is using rapidshare.de to upload pictures and small videos for the peeps hes knows here in sunny england to see. Im told the site is working fine except for yours truely. Haviing read the FAQ on the website and bits around this forum, I am putting my problem down to NTL's Transparent Proxy ? The IP rapidshare shows and my IP do differ so I hope I am right in saying the proxy is the problem.

Which brings me onto my question, is there anyway I can bypass this Transparent proxy ? I am using Firefox and managed to figure out how to change proxy's, but alas rapidshare shows different IP's to my correct one so I am assuming the proxys I have tried are all NTL transparent ones.

For anyone wondering, an example of the error message would be the following.

Code:
You (62.255.32.16) have requested 29868 KB in one hour. Want to download more?

This is not my IP but I think Im right saying this is NTL's Transparent proxy. ? I am just looking for a way to connect directly to the net.

TIA
