Our computer tech just blocked my ways of getting around the schools firewall to get to hotmail and my friends band site. Is there any way that I can still get around the firewall for free??

I didn't tell you this but their are programs that connect though porxies that may work, like i belive one is callled yourfreedom. Try a google search on that, then the only problem is installing it on the school computer i don't know if it needs to make registry changes cause if not you should be able to copy the program to a cd and run it from the cd. But remember you didn't hear this from me.

To get into hotmail...Try using another email service that knows how to manage e-mail through its site. I think gawab.com or bluebottle.com would work. I use both but not for checking hotmail. N for your friends bands site. Try the proxie thing. Or you could maybe change the firewall settings of your school? Mine are really easy to get into...So I never have that problem.

Good luck though

When my website was blocked from my school, I just accessed it via FTP, but you'd have to know the password.

^^^BAD IDEA....He wouldn't have the ability to view the pages like he could if he was viewing them through http....And besides...He's not gunna be able to get the ftp passwords lol...That would equal to security holes n such.

I didn't tell you this information, but I can get in my gmail and other websites by going in with thte secure layer. (https://www.sitenamehere.whatever) It works on my school network, but I won't give any guarantees.

Depending on what OS your school uses on the puters and which server OS....
In my case, we had Red Hat (and UNIX - just command line on server), then you'd just open a command window - log in on the server, start the browser from there. Gah, I used to know how to do this, I suppose not being in school kinda made me forget some of these things .

Hotmail is probably just blocked, your friends band site however I don't see a direct reason to block it, unless there is "mature" content there. I vaguely remember something can be changed in the Browsers connection settings. I will try to look it up in my old notes, can't make a promise though..

Neh... every reasonable skilled administrator would block the ip's or url's to the site. So you have to use proxies.

you'll find some proxies here

I STRONGLY recomend you get rid of this enitre topic now, the minute companys like WebSense see this and they do through searches using google will ban this site on the spot, they wont allow it, they do it all the time, even subtle hints get blocked. You may wish to do this soon!
