| | I wonder if there is a way to use these methods without the ICT teachers knowing... If my ICT teacher found it, he would ban me from my account and BAM there goes a GCSE in ICT. |

Well you can run PortableFirefox. It overrides all of their proxies so you can bypass a proxy server. I am trying to encourage schools in my district to use DNS blocking instead, so no matter what browser people use, the site is still blocked because the network is the same.
Instead of that, they blocked Firefox!!! Now they blocked Notepad++ for some reason, no more syntax colour coded HTML for me!! Why don't they use OpenDNS or something to implement the block? But anyways, if they use a proxy blocking method, they will also block external proxies (anonymizers and similar things) but you can still try the browser thing.
PortableFirefox + FoxyProxy + Tor (or a good list of open proxies/your home network proxy) is the way to go here. I use it all the time when I need to get past a restrictive environment at a client site.
Our school blocked firefox. >.<
In fact, the only thing we are allowed to go on is Microsoft Office and really old versions of photoshop, an old macromedia pack and lame learning games that the uncreative teachers made in flash. Also, the only sites we are actually allowed on are the BBC and Picsearch. So, I'm going to have to find a way that doesn't involve any proxies but something more that I can download onto my memory stick (once I find the darn thing).
Just get portablefirefox and rename the executable from firefox.exe to winword.exe and put it on a flash drive. Easy enough.
School Firewalls Iam tired of everytime I get a website to get around my school blocks they then block it can you help me out >???? -Joey
My school runs websense, which seems pretty much to be the standard in all of scotland, or at least all the highland schools. Unfortuantely, this school set it up badly and now it blocks any site the school haven't added to approval. Worst of all, my previous host wasn't blocked, and since it works by means of domain names, I decided to set up a proxy there for personal use, and it worked on a test computer that I installed filtering software on. Those people who used to host me somehow discovered my proxy, and proceeded to delete my account.
Now I've given up. I'll just ask the IT admin to add my own forum, which is all I wish to access.
I was at a client site for a week that ran websense...what a pain in the ass! Blocked ****ing everything and even had an application level filter.
So, I logged into my router at home via my phone's data connection and forwarded port 443 to my VPN box on my LAN running openvpn, set the protocol to TCP and routed all my traffic through there. Sanity restored 
Well....
School Firewalls Are there any proxies that are subtle for an administrator to find. Because if a proxy took up a big hunk of memory on your computer. Then an administrator is bound to find out! it sucks too is there any way to get proxies that you can hide? -reply by Nobody
