Geek Geek Geek!
I couldn't access this forum throughout Thursday and this morning. I am pretty sure my company has blocked access due to my frequent visits :eek: I receive a time out error when I try use browse HWF and the RSS Feed fails to load!

They haven't got the better of me though - I'm using a free web proxy server to browse this site right now :devil:

It's called DZZT and although it's a little slow, it does the job!
 
:o Im surpirsed our school havn'y blocked it they block everything else we go on...so we made our own prxy to access sites through :D
 
My college bocked hardware forums, but i can still load the main page, then access threads from the main page lol, i just cant go into the forums hehe :p

now i can go on everyhting with that DZZT :D:D:D
 
Guess I need to take down all those topless pics of myself down...:eek:

It may not be on purpose, as sometime's blocking something like hardcore might've taken it to the extreme. It could be a glitch.

If I do this then will I be able to use internal server as well?

I'm not sure I understand what you mean?

Basically this is how it works:

1)My computer (in the coporate LAN) visits DZZT.
2)I enter a webpage into DZZT's address box
3)DZZT browses the internet and fetches the webpage for me.

Even though I've been browsing Hardware Forums, as far as my internal network is concerned, I never left DZZT's website! :D

This process hides your computer's IP address. So anyone who tries to look for it will see DZZT's address instead.

Something must have happened over night because I can browse HWF without the proxy now :confused:
 
I use a proxy using CGI on a server, I put a .htaccess simple password protection in place to stop staff from seeing the proxy.

thats quite clever, I know my little bro has had alot of proxy servers blocked at school .
 
If your having problems with proxies getting blocked (including the ones you set up) just sign up the peacefire mailing list.

I get an email every 3 or 4 days with a new CGI proxy url in it! Allthough the sites do get blocked, i have allways been sent a new one before the block the old one! :P

If your worried you might get into trouble for recieving emails from peacefire.org, just sign up to the mailing list with a gmail account and set up rules to forward the emails from the to your school/work.
 
I shouldn't be providing this info, but if you were to look here while my back was turned, you might find something that can pass through even the mightiest of content filters.
