On our School Facebook is blocked and then I had the Idea of an Facebook client but the connection has to be encrypted otherwise the Page will be blocked by a programm called Squidhost. The browsers also dont allow cookies, so when you can open the Facebook Page you can't login. For the encryption a ssh connection could work but for the cookie-problem I could'nt find an answer because on the computernetwork in our school we need a Adminpermission to enable them. I saw that also other people wanted an Facebook client but on the one hand they did'nt posted a downloadlink or on the other hand they don't work anymore. I saw a portable app called Tweetdeck portable but i doesn't support Facebook anymore ( I tested it. I could only add a Twitteracc. but no Facebook Acc. anymore)
So does anybody has a solution or can anybody programm something like this (portable)? Are there any links to allready existing Facebook-clients?

As Facebook is web based in its origin, you could try Tor Browser budle ( https://www.torproject.org/projects/torbrowser.html.en ) or otherwise other portable browser (like Firefox Portable) and some 'VPN' proxy, there are many. Something like ultrasurf, which has a extension for the Firefox.
SSH encryption, well such things works between two points, so one would be your PC with let say Putty portable as SSH client, but where is the SSH server then?? Does Facebook operate SSH Server? I doubt.
With all those things it is the same: if you encrypt something, you need to make sure the other side can decrypt it.
SSL may work as most server today will be able to handle it and if you have their root certificate on your PC all will work.

Note that regardless of whether or not you're able to use this information, we DO NOT recommend nor encourage circumventing school/corporate website blocking.
Rather than trying to circumvent the blocking, we recommend talking to IT and trying to get the policy changed, provided you have a valid reason for doing so to give to IT.
Sry. I dont knew that.
I allready thought about Tor Browser, too, but I never had the chance to try it. But its a good Idea. And the thingy with the SSH encryption: Let's say Iam not the best in this territory so it wont work for me
but the Tor Brower is a realy nice idea! Thanks 
yes, only until your admin will discover it and will start to block all traffic to Tor network, which is also not difficult at all.
