Bypassing Content Filters

you could actually set up a proxy on a linux box that redirects port 80 to whatever port AIM runs on, then set AIM to run thru your proxy... even better, if your school allows 8080 or 8000, it's a lot more stable. go to http://www.dyndns.org to get a free DNS like bess_sux.homelinux.com and ddclient to automatically update it... it works for IRC on my friend's computer (RedHat 9 box; fwd: 8080>>6667).[/i]

at home you could put the mp3s you want on another website that the filter won't block with a different extension, like mp_ or ex_ then change it when you download them.

you idiots, everytime you post a way around Bess on the internet somebody associated with the company reads it and fixes it so that Bess will block those sites/cgi's so TALK about it in person, if you spread it online it will eventually become useless

it blocks everything at my school and im trying to find out how to get around it, please email me if you know how! thanx... corigraves@hotmail.com

go to a website such as cprox.netfirms.com and follow directions

goto http://babelfish.altavista.com/ translate spanise to english
and for the url to translate put http://babelfish.altavista.com/babel...?lp=en_es&url= then your url at the end. this will translate the page to spanish and back to english. It gets around web sence on mine, and i can read the page. i hope this works for you.
