Using a webproxy

Webproxies are CGI-scripts that you call with your browser and open a different URL (Internetaddress) with. So your firewall thinks you are only connecting to the server with the CGI-script. The addresses are not really meant as proxies. They act as translators, html-checkers or as a web archive. You can use them as a kind of proxy anyway. These webproxies are a good thing for "quick 'n dirty" bypassing. You don't have to configure your browser or something, but it's kind of slow and won't work with all webpages. Only the proxies that are going over a secure connection can be used for phrase filtering, but the others a perfect for URL/IP filtering. Use them in your school, company or library when you have no privileges to install/change something on the machine. If you do have webspace with cgi ability you can download the CGIProxy from James Marshall and install it on that webspace (there is a easy installer which does everything for you: http://install.xav.com/?p=cgiproxy). Or you can install it on your PC at home and access it at work. How to do so you can read here: http://www.peacefire.org/circumventor/simple-circumventor-instructions.html. To find new working proxies search for "nph-proxy.cgi", "nph-proxy.pl", "Start Using CGIProxy", "Start browsing through this CGI-based proxy", "WARNING: Entering non-anonymous area" or something like that with Google, Alltheweb, Wisenut or another search engine.
