Ultimately, I would recommend against circumventing your workplace proxy
settings.  It is grounds for dismissal, and may be easily detected, both
from a network standpoint and an over-the-shoulder inspection.

That said, I would set up an SSH server somewhere outside the workplace
with the listening port set to 443 (HTTPS) (of anything that is not
filtered via the firewall).  Log in via straight SSH and run a
client-side X server, launching a browser through the encrypted tunnel,
or use something like FreeNX and the non-free NX client, and launch a
remote X session.
