Most corporate environments allow only http/https through a web proxy.
This is what I use:
/etc/ssh/ssh_config:
Host home.computer.net
    ProxyCommand /usr/bin/proxytunnel -g proxy.server.com -G proxyport
-d home.computer.net -D 443

Of course you can type it on the command line too. Along with a
couple of portforwards, this is pretty useful.
BTW, proxytunnel is included in debian. I couldn't get corkscrew to
work.
