Using Proxies to bypass browsing Restrictions and Problems
Well some universities have blocker firewall placed in that blocks your browsing bliss..but if there's security system in place ..there'll always be a way around
you can use free proxy servers to :
* browse blocked sites.
* speed up downloads.
* speed up torrents(in some case).
* browse sites that your ISP has problems to scale or render.
I took the liberty of taking the instructions from this blog as it was so well done
also this is done in Mozilla Firefox. but if you have a little commonsense you can do it in other browsers and applications..
Step 1.
Find a list of free proxy. You can Google it out. One such list is here.
Step 2.
Now choose an IP address and port from this list. In this tutorial I have chosen IP: 195.175.37.6 and port: 8080. You can choose whatever you like.
Step 3.
Open Firefox and in the menu choose Tools and then Options.
This will open the Firefox Options window. Click on Advance Options.
Step 4.
Click on Network tab and the click Settings button under Connection.
Step 5.
In Connection Settings window, click Manual proxy configuration. Now enter the IP address in HTTP Proxy and Port address in Port. ( In this example HTTP Proxy address is 195.175.37.6 and Port is 8080).
Also check the box 'Use this proxy server for all protocols'.
Instructions for Utorrent :
1. Start Utorrent.
2. go to Options>Preference.
3. select connections.
4. In the proxy server panel select type http and than insert your proxies and click ok.
Instructions for IDM:
1. go to Download menu.
2. go to proxy tab. check http and than enter your proxy there
please forgive any mistakes that i've made
