School blocked myspace?
A friend came to me with an issue recently, she found herself blocked from sites such as friendster and myspace. While I don’t particularly care for these type of social networking sites (I mean, we didn’t have them in my day – I turned out okay didn’t I?!?), I was here to lend a hand.
Now if you didn’t know already, the web proxy niche is flooded to the max. New sites popup every day that allow you to browse web pages through their web based proxy. Quite a few are making a tidy profit.
So what I’m going to do is recommend a few solutions to get around your school blocking myspace.
Solution 1
Use a web based proxy to bypass your schools firewall, here are a few;

Solution 2
You could try using a portable browser such as Opera + TOR, which promotes anonymous browsing;

Solution 3
You can use Google Mobile to transform pages so you can view them. However the pages will look funky, as they are intended to be used by mobile device – however it does work, and schools rarely block google so you should be right

Does your school have a strong blocking policy that you can’t get around? If port 22 is open, you may be able to tunnel your HTTP traffic through an SSH server.
PLEASE NOTE; FOR THIS SOLUTION TO WORK YOU MUST HAVE ACCESS TO SOME SORT OF SSH SERVER Don’t have access to a SSH server? Search here for a free shell account.
First, download and install PUTTY.
Under session, type in the SSH server you intend to connect to.
Next, Under Connection you’ll see SSH and under that you will see “Tunnels”.
Apply the following;
Source Port: 7000
Destination: localhost
Select “Dynamic” and “Auto”
Now connect.
Next fire up Firefox and do the following; Tools->Options->Advanced->Network->Settings and set the following proxy configuration:
* Manual proxy config
* SOCKS Host: localhost
* Port: 70000
* SOCKSv5
Now all your HTTP traffic is being tunneled through your SSH server.
Don’t have Firefox? School blocks you from installing applications?
Download Firefox Portable! (Allows you to run Firefox without installing any applications)
Enjoy

Hi Kayla,
Some school administrators apply heavy school blocking policy’s – so it can be hard to get around it. I’ve added 2 more solutions which may help, though they are technical.
hi kayla, some of these website works actually. I found some proxy website works (only for 1 week hahaha) and some don’t. Usually new proxy works but old proxy from 2-3 weeks back already block. So if you lucky you will find some, good luck to you. Right now I use http://www.orangezone.co.cc but my college will block this for sure. just matter of time
don’t forget to subscribe for the proxy mailing list, got some premium proxy there…

The loans suppose to be useful for people, which are willing to start their business. By the way, it’s not very hard to receive a auto loan.
