Read an interesting article today on how to use google language tools to get to web pages that your company/university block. Sometimes you need to check something on a blocked site (eg my company block shellcity for some obscure reason). All you have to do is put this URL:
http://www.google.com/translate?langpair=en|en&u= (http://www.google.com/translate?langpair=en%7Cen&u=)
into your address bar and put the web address you want to visit at the end, e.g.:
http://www.google.com/translate?langpair=e...w.shellcity.net (http://www.google.com/translate?langpair=en%7Cen&u=www.shellcity.net)
The original article can be found at http://www.oreillynet.com/pub/h/4807 (http://www.oreillynet.com/pub/h/4807)
NB, you can use this to get pages in any language, e.g. to get french pages you would type fr|fr instead of en|en in the URL.
Damn neat methinks :)
Are you hidden? Look at this:
http://www.google.com/translate?langpair=e....whatismyip.com (http://www.google.com/translate?langpair=en%7Cen&u=www.whatismyip.com)
Oi Loike That.
So if you can get the IP of your intended sight, you can then replace the url with the IP and that way keyword searching on the URL and checking of banned sites is minimised.
How to defeat your weak admins firewall block list if you were at university say....
But, you should probably avoid that.....any admin worth his salt is blocking on IP and URL aswell as searching page content..try it, see if you get suspended, if you do, he's better than you.

this one is safe. it's a proxied connection to Cisco.
Nice find BB.
Nifty
Going by direct ip will only be good for looking at the default domain on the web server. If there are subdomains, you would have to know the hosted subdir /user to get where you were going.
