My university lately instaled a firewall that prevents us from accessing certain websites I heard there are some proxy websites that will enable us to circumvent this firewall
can you post some links of such websites?

I hate when schools do that, its so annoying and there are always ways around them.

There are a bunch of free web proxies here: http://www.freeproxy...y/cgi-proxy.htm

otherwise just search google for "free http proxies" That will most likely come up with web based proxies along with proxie ip's that you can put into your browser to use.

Hope it helps and Good Luck

I don't want to disturb the flow of this thread, but I would like to make a NOTE that, Hosting Proxy scripts on Trap17 free web hosting accounts is STRICTLY prohibited.

Ok since you should know that I have a school comp... and all that stuff, but we have a super firewall, you guys have all the crappy proxies. Here are the good ones:

1) https://www.fsurf.com/
2) https://w8.base-v.ch/ (chinese proxy, find the box, and type a URL, and click the other box...)

And I will post more when I figure it out, most of those are blocked @ my school.

There is a software named Anonmyity4Proxy that will act as a proxy and allows us to view websites without being blocked by Firewall. This is also faster than the other ways of Proxy acess.

The best proxy is an unknown one that's used only by a few people, so that it never gets blocked by a filtering system. I personally like to use http://cokeclient.com/i/google/1/ to proxy, no filters really block it at all, and it isn't like a paid service that blocks certain areas. Another way to get around filters like that is to use SSL. Most firewall filters don't block ssl, so if the website supports SSL, you're free to go there.

I'm surprise no one posted why schools do this, 1 school computers are used for education not looking up cheats for a game and checking your email or looking at porn. 2 it prevents people from trying to hack websites from a school computer and get away with it cleanly. you have your computers at home to do that junk.

Wow... Saint Michael.. I hate to disagree with a cool member, but your totally wrong on all accounts!
Here's why we want proxies, and hate blocks.

• Can't check e-mails
  
• Can't get to Trap17... untill they unblocked it [ ]
  
• Can't use meebo
  
• Restricted access to some websites, you need
  
• Blocking is a pain in the arse and clogs up your school comp
  
• Causes people to abuse there tech. priveledge and stuff
  
• Makes HCPS Schools pay $4,500 ( ) for a freaking little firewall box, has blocked anything and everything they possibly can!... good work (not). 8e6 Tech (Firewalls and Server Managements)
  
• Makes students annoyed
  
• People could care less about porno and stuff of that nature
  
• We want to play a game during study hall or something, check some e-mails that sorta thing

Now by no means, I'm going to say that people aren't going to hack the servers (always failed!), or look @ porn and watch that stuff at school, thats just plain wrong. But there are always people that will abuse the right, and thats why its taken away and stuff, so in a sense Saint Michael YES, your right So half of your stuff is wrong, half right. Different to explain in some cases, depends on what type of person you are.
