Flippin' the great firewall

[riverchen]

Herpadurr, im in china! In unrelated news can anyone tell me how to flip the great firewall as it is called here? I've tried proxy website searches, but i get blocked on sometimes searching 'proxy' on google, or if i have a link it blocks me from the page. Thanks.

try using tor. it can be installed as an addon in firefox.

I believe that is just anon browsing (?)... also nice sig and avvy

Yes you browse anonymously by changing proxies and Tor is by far the best and easiest option. the last time i used it, i had Google in German!!. and thx about the sig and avatar . and last try using Tor as an Add-on for firefox its a bit more convenient.

Alright, i didnt know it used proxies. let em see if i can find a chrome addon.

Tor is a network of encrypted proxies, so from what I've read it's much more effective than a normal one at bypassing the great firewall.

An issue being it seems china likes to try to block any of the entry points to keep people from using it.

its worth a shot we'll wait for your results....
