A VPN or a proxy.

You can Google some free ones or you can use something like

VPNHost or something (they sponsored LTT earlier) or Tunnelbear (current sponsor)

Hi everybody

 

In work, we have blocked some websites coz of "security reasons" as we work with personal details of our clients (names, birth dates and such things). I don't know on what logic the sites are blocked (probably on some key words that are in the description of website, such as pr0n and so).

 

Among these blocked sites, there are few image sharing sites for example Flickr, therefore I'm unable to see some pictures on LTT forum.

 

Is there any way how to bypass this? For example some site where I put the link of image and it would load it for me, so i don't have to visit the (blocked) site. I tried using Imgur's (imgur works) upload option and putting there Flickr link which didn't work (I also tried that with gmail).

 

Do you have any suggestions for me?

Tunnelbear seems like a software to me, I'm not allowed to install anything.

 

But I tried to google some "VPN free online" and couple of sites poped up and it's working (I knew only hidemya** and it was blocked :D)

 

Thanks guys :)

 

EDIT: I've checked another 7 sites and most VPN sites are blocked :P
