Okay, so my school has blocked Facebook and the site "unblockfacebook.com". They've also banned any site with the name "proxy" in it, so I personally have no idea how to get around the block. Does anyone have any ideas how I can do this?

Teach the geeks how to talk to girls in exchange for them hacking the system.
They'll do it.

Heres what I do, but this is for high school servers. They use the Novell login system. I discovered my school's admin server, and along with it all the teacher login status. I just then take over the guest acc (to prevent anyone from knowing that their acc is being used by someone else) which bypasses all restrictions (other than pr0n I believe).
What do you know about your school system/restrictions?

I found a nifty program, when used with a valid username and password, will show you all the active processes on a machine, password policies, username details, ETC. However, it will also show you the various ports used for the system. (A port is a means of gathering various data through a special "hole" in the firewall, and each port does a different thing.)
Um, yah, my old school blocked myspace on all LAN enabled computers, but the wireless isn't blocked. My school uses two domains, INSIDE and AARM, which are used for university/high school accounts. The INSIDE domain is used for university students/Support Tech/University employees. I'm using an INSIDE account, however I don't go to school there anymore.
The AARM accounts are heavily restricted. (Somehow, a friend of mine was able to gain about 1.9 GB of space from some andrew's server.)
All of our AARM accounts are given 100 MB of free space.
However, the security is based on public/private keys. When you connect to the andrew's network, the DHCP server sends you a private key, to which you are only accessed to. However, someone else can see your information once they have your private key, which is nearly impossible to get. They can use a public key to gain access to your information, though.
First and foremost, if you want to get past the restrictions, and you have a server outside of the network that is directly connected to the internet, You'll want to do what we call a VPN (virtually private network) with that particular server. (Windows XP has this capability built-in) Essentially what happens is when you connect to you're server via VPN, all the data from the internet goes to that server, then is forwarded to your computer. Your Proxy, or Webproxy, which is the main gateway that is used to block/resctrict certain websites, can see a "tunnel" of your connection to the VPN, but it can't read whats being sent/received.
This way, you can get past all restrictions, because you are instead "using" your server outside the network. I haven't really been able to VPN because I don't have any server. Yet, anyway.
How did you find this out WhoT?

I know little to nothing about system restrictions at my school. I know it's novell but other than that, nothing.
Also, while I do occasionally check facebook, it's more the girl who sits next to me who I'd like to help out (if you catch my drift).

I get it. By help her out, you mean you want to f**k her brains out. Right?
If not, this is going to be an awkward moment.

You get straight to the point, eh meph....
And c'mon guys, is it really that urgent that you need to check facebook every hour on the hour?
Nothing life-threatening will change between the time you go to school and the time you get home. Trust me.

That's pretty much what I said, only in more words.
On another note, mephistool gets an Exalt for having one of my favorite Family Guy quotes as his sig.

Haha, this I know, but we need something to do when we're bored and believe it or not some people are amused by facebook  Besides, it's a matter of outsmarting the system. |

Try www.StupidCensorship.com/ and if that doesn't work there is another option. I would guess you have an unblocked internet connection at home? There is software you can install that will allow you to access your home computer from school and then access facebook that way. Try: www.peacefire.org/circumventor/simple-circumventor-instructions.htmlIf none of these work there are some other tricks. Of course, I do not encourage breaking any rules and I only post this information for educational purposes! |

Myspace is the devil! (So is facebook, but I've never used it.)
If you really want to do it, I can teach you how to set up a VPN.

This isn't so much related here to the idea of getting around the restrictions your school uses as it is more a general pondering of that restriction. Really? I mean...reeeally? Your school actually goes to the trouble of blocking that? At first I thought you were talking about a college, but a high school is just as ridiculous. I can understand blocking access to pornographic material from a school computer, but to take out social networking sites because (I'm guessing here) they believe it cuts down on inappropriate behavior (stories in the media about students posting under-age drinking shots on myspace, etc.) is moronic. Schools have no right to regulate the content their students receive beyond ensuring that said content doesn't violate community obscenity standards, which neither Facebook nor Myspace do. That said, perhaps even more to the point is the fact that people like Chalupa and Whot and Prone exist. The school HAS to know that its students are going to find ways (either through the internet, or friends like the above) to get around this crap. NO institution (not even the Chinese government, the be-all and end-all of censoring in my book) is 100% effective at this kind of thing, and this is an American high school...not exactly a bastion of technological ability. What in the HELL are they thinking? Do me a favor Dx...ask the next administrator you talk to that very question. And while you're at it, ask them why your school doesn't censor its history textbooks of any and every violent act...if you want to deem Facebook/Myspace bad influences, then I'd hate to think what happens when you teach students about Hitler.
This probably belongs in the debate forum or something, so I apologize...just read this for the first time and I'm really really fuming about it!

Speaking of Hitler in History class, last year they made us watch actual footage taken at the sites of German concentration camps in Poland during WW2. Gruesome motherf*ckin stuff, felt a little sick afterwards.
And I'm SO SURE that the sh*t that's on Myspace is SOOO much worse.
Oh, the hypocracy.
