How to Bypass your school internet filter.


These days, schools made their Internet bandwidth for students kinda restricted , they cant afford the Internet bandwidth for students to do fun thing on school computers and that really sucks! Some schools expect students to actually do work during IT lessons, and some IT departments just don't even like YouTube. But today i'am gonna show you guys how to break these damn rules ;)

  •     HTTPS
This is the most easy way as far i know but sometimes doesn't works though :/. Just add an S on to the http. so lets say for example http://www.facebook.com/ you would change it to https://www.facebook.com/ .
  •     UltraSurf
In my high school i use a programme named UltraSurf. http://www.ultrareach.com/ U just need to download this to a flash drive and when you are at your school just run it and it will pop-up with a new browser window. Job well done :D



  •    Using Proxy
FireFox can have its own proxy set and it will route all traffic through the open proxy server, avoiding using banned keywords in the URL. This traffic will then be sent through the filter proxy by the operating system, but will not be blocked if all has worked well.

1) It's best to use the portable version available here because it wont leave evidence of running FireFox on the main system hard drive. U can also save bookmarks and all those stuffs in it.

2) Set up FireFox to a proxy. Tools menu> Options> Connection Settings button> radio button for "Manual proxy configuration", and fill in relevant proxies/port numbers. Some good proxy numbers is available here.

3) For facebook user u can use chinoxy.com.
  •     De-filters
These are websites which take a URL, and collect the content for you. The work because the filters only can see you downloading data from the unblocked website (the de-filter); the connection to the banned site is from another external web server so it doesn't pass through your schools filters.

These are some good de-filter websites u might get help:

    defilter.co.uk
    lazyfoo.co.uk
    www.browserunblocker.net

Where possible, tick the box that turns on some kind of encryption. This prevents the IT department seeing what sites you gave unblocked. Also, sites that use the HTTPS protocol are even harder to be caught with.

However, de-filter sites do not always unblock active content such as flash, or videos so they are not perfect. If you find a good de-filter, don't give it to anyone because it will soon spread round the school, and end up blocked.

Instead of proxy sites to Unblock Internet at School i am using "Hotspot Shield" VPN software. it secures your IP address from the inquisitive eyes of web spies and hackers enabling you to surf the web in complete privacy.
