    dragoncave
    neopets
    photobucket
    any online instant chat {trust me i tried everything on google}

    You could try using a different internet browser then the basic provided one might work.

    FireFox, Safari , Netscape , Opera , Internet Explorer

    If they block you from using different programs as well or keep a record of the programs you use then you can also change the name of the program to something like wordpad.exe or some other program that they would think is for work.

    You could also try to get into some type of an account that allows less protection you could try using the user name Ledger and pass Ledger some schools use that as a alternative account for the students wh o make the school papers and they can access almost anything online.

    Also a lot of the older password protectors will get you in with the user name Off and leaving the password blank

    Hopefully some of this helps you.

    mine blocks parts of dragon cave (?) and anything with games. Which is everything. But since it's all networked for us, computers in different rooms have different block settings.

    Yeah...when I was in high school a few years ago the computer system there blocked all kinds of flash and stuff in addition to a wide variety of sites that were associated with online gaming...it was pretty random and pretty ridiculous. They also tried to filter sketchy material, and ended up filtering too much...it became difficult to do research for reports for health class :p STDs and whatnot lol

    why don;t you use a proxy server If its not blocked already. Secure-tunnel.com is good and free.

    My school has everything blocked, and it's through our huge network and not on the computers :/
    Luckily I don't have much time in class, and good thing Deviant art and Photobucket aren't blocked, I need them in CG.

    you dont need to change the settings on the browser this server is an online one. you just go to the site and browse through there. try it out it may work.

    I tried, and it doesn't work :p Because they don't just block the site, they block every CONTENT uploaded, images, flash content, text, everything and this is all I can see:

    Yup, the text itself. The rest is just blank.

    Sucks. My school's like that too, the filters are ridiculous. I can't even go on Flickr, and I need to for Digital Photo! Not even email, and I need to email myself projects!
