Watching the Daily Show if you're not in the US

Well, it finally happened. Daily video streaming for the last episode of the "The Daily Show" is no longer available from the Republic Of Ireland (was working fine 'till yesterday).

The solution:

• Get a VPS, private server, whatever box in the US with enough bandwidth and an ssh server
  
• Using putty add the following tunnel:
  - source port: 80
  - Destination: media.mtvnservices.com:80
• Edit your C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts file and add the line:
  127.0.0.1 media.mtvnservices.com
• Establish an ssh connection, and then open a browser to www.thedailyshow.com

"No soup for you"? Yeah, I'd like to see you try!
