Accessing a Website Behind a Firewall

I was working on a computer today and the person I was working for had a complaint about their workplace. Apparently these employees aren’t allowed to access certain sites, not because they’re malicious or full of malware. Just because the company didn’t want them wasting time at work while they were waiting for some work to do.

I told this person that they could bypass the firewall that was blocking all these sites. Well this person was quite intrigued and asked me to tell them how.

I thought, I could tell them how but it would be easier to put it in a blog so they could follow the steps right at work or if they couldn’t access the blog from work they could at least print it out and bring it there.

So, I promised I’d write this page for this person and their coworkers.

Here’s how to do it; (You can click on the pictures to make them bigger if you need to)

Scroll down until your page looks like this.

Click on the options until they are checked like mine.
