Myspace Blocked? Annoyed that your stuck behind a firewall and an administrator has disabled your favorite site access? Many places, including schools and libraries, are disabling access to sites like Myspace, Bebo, Facebook, Hi5, and Xang. Additionally many entities are blocking access to social networking, file-sharing, instant messaging, and email sites like Gmail, Yahoo! Mail and Hotmail. Many of these sites are blocked so that children will be more productive at school or due to questionable content. However, there are still ways to get around the firewalls and filters that restrict access to these sites. The easiest way to unblock Myspace is to use a Web Proxy to bypass the firewall or filter. A web based proxy gets you access to a page that has been blocked by tunneling all traffic via the proxy. Thus it appears to the firewall or filter as if you are only accessing the web proxy site. Thus a web proxy not only gives you access to blocked pages, but it also makes you anonymous. To use a web proxy simply type the URL (like www.myspace.com) into the proxy page and it will unblock the page for you. Here is a list of proxies that do this(you may want to right click on them and open in a new window): http://www.schoolfreedom.info http://www.collegefreedom.info http://www.myspacefreedom.info http://www.inetfreedom.info Despite their names each proxy will unblock any site. These web proxies are both free to use and anonymous. When you use a proxy or anonymizer the administrators will not be able to see what you access, they will only be able to see that you went to the proxy page. Myspace users can browse Myspace, login, post comments, blog, etc… Due to the nature of the proxies they will eventually be blocked by your network if enough people use them. This is simply solved by using a different proxy. The newer the proxy, the less likely it is to be blocked since the admins don’t know it exits to block it. There are new ones all the time. If all of the above proxies are blocked, then you can go to a network site that is dedicated to giving you the newest list of proxies. These are(you may want to right click on them and open in a new window): http://www.freedomnetwork.info http://www.stealthnetwork.info These may too eventually be blocked so there is a third option. The Freedom Network and the Stealth Network each have an auto responder email that will give you the latest list of proxies. Since admins cannot block what you receive in your email this is ultimately an effective way to get the latest proxies. These lists are planned to be updated at least weekly if not more often, so odds are you should find a working proxy on this list. To get the list simply send an email with the word “list” in the subject and the word “list” in the body to one or both of the following: freedomlist@freedomnetwork.info – For the Freedom List stealthlist@stealthnetwork.info – For the Stealth List You will usually receive a response with the list in 3-4 minutes or less, however due to the amount of people requesting it could take as much as a few hours to receive the list. These email boxes are not monitored. You will get an auto response with the list and then your email will be deleted. The email will come as an HTML formatted email, so if your email doesn’t support html you might want to get a free web mail account like Gmail. These lists are provided as a free service to you, please do not abuse them by hammering them (sending multiple emails in the period of a few minutes) or your IP and email address will be banned. If all of this fails .….. well then read a book. Happy Surfing!
