wut proxy sites do u guys know. my school has most of them blocked and i cant google them because they have a bunch of sites on google blocked so anybody know of some good sites???

If the school already has proxys blocked there is no way to get past it, even with other types of proxys.

My friend showed me a program today, I forgot what the heck it does but its like a little gold lock that appears on the bottom right of your screen (pretty big) and somehow it bypasses websense (the blocker our school system uses) and we can access any website we want to. I'll find out what it is called Wednesday when we go back to school for you. But depending on the blocker your school uses, often times by entering the IP address of websites works too. Or proxies.

You might not even need that program to do what you want.

IF you have access to Ping you might be able to ping the URL of the site that you want to access. There is a good chance this will work because Ping is a network tool and usually is not blocked for outgoing network traffic.

Once running, Ping will display the IP address of the site and you can use that to access the site by plugging it into the address bar of your browser.

What my friends and I did was install Firefox web browser on thumb drives and ran our own internet configuration settings from the same network. We were able to access anything we wanted to

My school uses something called FortiGuard Center and I tried using a firefox portable but it still didn't work because it blocks all the bad sites even the good ones so we can't even do work. But to what que13x said how would you do that? Just command prompt info so do you type in?

yeah schools go way to over the top when blocking sites..What do they think were gonna look up nude right there infront of the teachers/whole school? I cant access ANYTHING..sucks.. Yeah and i cant download/install stuff ether, or else they will lock my account.

At my school they have started relizing that they cant block all the proxy sites cause there are tonnes so they have started to constantly monitering our accounts and if we access a proxy we get a detention =(.

For example if I wanted to access the URL www.google.com, and it was being blocked I would go to the command prompt and type:

ping www.google.com

I would expect to see from the computer:

Pinging www.google.com [74.125.47.99] with 32 bytes


The red numbers are Google's IP address. That is what you want to input to your address bar to access google. Try it now on your computer if you doubt me.

This has worked on military systems as I have been asked before by soldiers and sailors how to bypass security and access certain sites. I doubt your school network is as well fortified or as well operated (snicker)as a government system but hey, anything is possible.

Just know that if the administrators are doing their job you can still get caught and get into trouble. If they are worth their salt they should be logging all traffic and reviewing it frequently. I doubt they are though.

Yea my school has blocked that so what else could I do?

Like I can do that get the sites IP addy but when I go to type it in the schools site blocking system turns on.

Nothing I know of except gain access to a privileged account. I will not help you with that. You could get into even more trouble.

My advice... Do whatever it is you want to do at home. Or if you insist learn everything you can about the servers at the school and how they operate. Ask the administrators as many questions as you can. They would enjoy the company and if they are any good, like bragging about the system they oversee and how well defended it is.

Over time you could gain enough information to chip away at its defenses but I think you would be graduated by the time you got that good.

IP Address blocker?
Give me some time to think about this.

I bring my psp to school all the time and one teacher has a wireless network...add the 2 together and i get on the brew everyday. Funny thing is....pspbrew isnt blocked but xboxbrew is.

lol bk mine is the other way around, but for the normal computers, but i even tried my psp and the sites are still block?

pspbrew.com is blocked on my schools computers but psp.brewology.com isnt and its the same thing XD.
