There are a number of Maven users on this list (mostly military?) who have run into similar problems. The easiest solution is the sneakernet option you proposed. Bear in mind that you are defeating the entire purpose of the firewall (at least in the minds of the people who put that rule in place) and as such are probably violating various policies etc that may result in job losses down the road. You really should try to resolve this problem with the responsible teams -- surely there is a process in place to allow whitelisting of sites etc, or perhaps they should reconsider the Jar blocking policy entirely?
