Access from work issue

I cannot access my website nor Surmunity from work.

This started after a virus outbreak and tightening of security and the firewall. Today, I ran into one of the network operations people and asked "WHY?" He investigated and said

They "seem" to be infected with the Nirbot virus. The rule that is stoping the site is the rule that stops the morphing of the Nirbot virus.
Nirbot - Also known as: W32/Delbot (Sophos), W32.Rinbot (Symantec), Backdoor.Win32.VanBot (Kaspersky) - it seems to work through port 8080

Now I doubt Surpass is infected with a virus, so I am hoping that I can learn something to convince the network folks to allow me access. I posted here first rather than a ticket to Support to get the learned opinion of Surmunity before I went to support.

So, does anyone think Surpass is infected?
