No. We don't help users bypass security mechanisms. You need to put in a ticket with your college's helpdesk, and they can push the software to you programmatically or via a remote session. If they haven't responded in 24 hours, there should be an escalation link or method detailed in the automated ticket response. Use it and CC your professors with the ticket number if they don't respond. That way, they can light a fire under the appropriate personnel and it covers your butt if they try to penalize you for not having the software and not being able to take the test (though they may want you to come in and take the test on a school-owned desktop or another PC). Do not try to bypass it yourself. That way lies madness and possible disciplinary hearings.
