How to Bypass a Proxy Block

How to Bypass a Proxy Block thumbnail
Bypassing a proxy block is a simple task.

A proxy block is used by computer owners or network administrators to keep users from accessing websites that use a large amount of bandwidth, receive a high flow of traffic or display inappropriate content. A proxy block can be established by using software like Websense or SmartFilter, or by editing the Internet options setting on your web browser. If you want to bypass a proxy block, there are several proxy websites that can help you.

Instructions

  1. VectroProxy

      Type the URL of the blocked website you are trying to access in the blank text box located below the "Enter the Web Address" text.

    • 3

      Click the "Browse!" tab located next to the text box where you typed the URL and wait for VectroProxy to direct you to the website that was previously blocked.
