Answer:
All perfect praise be to Allaah, The Lord of the Worlds. I testify that there is none worthy of worship except Allaah, and that Muhammad, sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam, is His Slave and Messenger.
It is impermissible for you to access the Internet with a user ID and password without the permission of their owner; and even if he gave you permission to use them, your company does not allow accessing the Internet during work hours. So, you must abide by that and it is impermissible for you to violate the company’s regulations in this regard. Allaah, The Exalted, says (what means): {O you who have believed, fulfill [all] contracts…}[Quran 5:1]
Allaah Knows best.
