Unblocking a Blocked Website

Some countries, schools, and businesses block websites in order to reduce distractions, conserve bandwidth, or censor content. There are a number of methods to use for bypassing blocked websites. Some are..
Method 1 

1. Open Command Prompt.
2. Type ping websitename.com, where websitename is the name of the website.
3. Now you can see the IP address in square [] brackets. Over here it is [173.194.36.64].


4. Copy this Ip address and type it into the address bar in your browser.

Method 2

1. Go to Google.com
2. In the search box type cache:websitename.com , where websitename is the site name and hit Enter.
Google will take automatically take you to the previously saved version of that website.

Method 3

We can also use proxy servers to visit blocked sites!!The proxy displays the blocked website, and allows you to interact with it. All you have to do is visit a proxy service website. Type the URL of the site you wish to unblock, and press Surf. Now you can browse this website like any other normal website!

How to Find Proxy Websites and Proxy Servers
Just Google search free proxy websites or proxy servers.

How to Setup Proxy Servers using their IP Address
If you want to visit a blocked website using web proxy, you do not need any setup. However to use a proxy server that can only be accessed by using its IP address and port number, you must make some required changes in your browser.

Changes For Google Chrome and Internet Explorer Users

Google Chrome uses the same network settings as Internet Explorer. So, in order to configure Google Chrome to use a proxy server, you have to configure Internet Explorer. You can configure a proxy server in Internet Explorer by following the instructions given below:-
  • Open Internet Explorer.

  •  Go to Tools--> Internet Options.
  • Click on Connections Tab, select LAN Settings.
  • Check on Use a Proxy Server for this Connection.
  • In the Address field, add the IP Address of your Proxy server. In the Port field, enter the Port Number.
  • Click on OK and OK again.

Changes For Mozilla Firefox Users
  • OpenMozilla Firefox.
  • Go to Tools--> Options.
  • Click on Advanced Tab.
  • Click on Network tab.
  • Click on Settings.
  • Encircle Manual Proxy Configuration.
  • Enter the IP Address and Port Number at the appropriate place. In most cases, it will be a HTTP server.  







After finishing configuration you can view blocked sites like normal websites!!
