put firefox on a thumb-drive. Copy the folder over to your personal files and run it remotely, no bess. Then again don't go against your school's protection, could get you in trouble. A kid was watching porn today in my computers class on bessed computers. It was funny.

Not to flame but how is that affiliated with the topic?

I wouldn't try getting past school firewalls, it's a violation of your AUP (Accepted User Policy) and by violating it you could lose your username, be suspended, etc. You should save your surfing for home.

On the topic of Firefox, that wouldn't help, Firefox is a web browser just like IE, and uses the same protocols and port numbers as all other web browsers to access online content, so websites that are blocked in IE should be blocked in all web browsers if the administrators of the network have everything set up right.

How can i get past my school's firewall :angry: You all know what im taking about.

Right now im using projectbypass.com and thats really bad for loading pages. sometimes pictures will be missing or the page might not load at all after the first screen.

don't risk geting your user name at school banded and you geting suspended or Expelled . cause your parents might take away computer privliges at home also. and they blocked certian websites for a reason. they have fliters, so when a website comes up that has the words like "Chat" "Web chat" "instent messengeing" "sex" , "Downloading" "nudey" ETC, basicly anything that they dont want in schools, they block. my school does that. and i am prety sure every school does that.

like a past responser said, save your "free" web browseing for home.

* By Free I mean, downloading, chating on line, My space ( if you have one) looking up info on stuff you like. etc

They didn't block anything in my school. But they didn't know very much about networks and stuff either.

But as above posts state, don't take the risk. Unless of course, you think it's really worth just being able to browse a little in return for some severe punishment.

this isn't allowed by neowin rules is it?

and it really isn't worth the risk if they will expel or exclude you.. just visit the pages at home in your own time

I, dont know, but all the feedback we're giving him, so far from what i can see isn't harsh and, not any fights and arguments are gong on. and hes acpecting it.

i dont really want to go on bad sites in school. the problem is that i send my self homework from school to my gmail account and cant download my homework, then i have to ask my teacher to use his account to download it. Some sites shouldn't be blocked.

well, do you have another e-mail addess, if you have an Instent messengeing program, most involve an e-mail address with that, such as yahoo, MSN, AIM, etc. try to send the homework to that address if you have one, if you don't then yout probley out of luck, and might have to contune to ask the teacher, or bring home the homework, with you from school. :)

Ps. isn't expell and exclude the same thing. most of the time its just suspended and then expelled :)

they might block it because they are *afraid* the kid would click on a virus sent to them via email and it would infect their computers. You should really just setup a FTP account at home and connect to your computer at home and transfer files that way. Either that or ask your parents to buy you a USB flash drive FOR SCHOOL!

yeah you can get a flash drive for pretty cheap now...

Speaking from experience, bypassing your school's firewall is not a good idea. I can't use any of the school computers at my high school as my punishment...not that I need to tho. I'm in college now. Still bad news...

And I was just using a proxy service!!! zero tolerance sucks

www.browsingatwork.com should do the trick for you :) depends on how you want to get around the firewall though as this just unlocks all blocked websites on port 80, it don't bypass all the blocked firewall ports.

omg, dont encourage the kid, so far, everyone on this board has given him ideas on how he can get what he wants with out hacking in to something.

I am a network admin for a librrary.

The school admins will know if you bypass the firewall. they will even be able to tell wich computer it was done at .

Also Many admins are blocking those kinds of sites. I wouldnt attempt it.

Alot of the school networkl admins are young enough now that they were doing the same things that you are now. I wouldnt try it.

    • Microsoft will soon allow some users to block Copilot from analyzing their Office files by Usama Jawad Microsoft Purview is a pretty useful data governance, security, and management service that allows customers to gain enhanced visibility and control over their content. It's meant for commercial customers, such as organizations that are storing data at scale. As AI continues to expand and infiltrate every corner of a firm, many are a bit conscious about the technology gaining access to their confidential data. Microsoft is now making a configuration change that will allow such customers to rest easy. Right now, users within an organization have the option to apply Purview sensitivity labels (when available) to secure certain files and label them as such. For example, if you apply the "Confidential" label on an Excel file, the file will be encrypted, and a "confidential" watermark will be applied to it. So, if this file is shared with anyone, they are aware that its access is supposed to be restricted. Up until now, Microsoft was allowing some connected experiences, like its AI services, to analyze files, regardless of their sensitivity label. This is of major concern to most organizations, as a recent example highlighted how confidential emails with data loss prevention (DLP) policies like privacy labels were being uploaded to Copilot for analysis. As such, Microsoft is updating an existing Purview data label sensitivity setting that prevents "some connected experiences that analyze content", from being blocked completely from doing this. The label isn't changing, but the blocking is now being enforced across all connected services (including Copilot and other AI tools), and now extends to Microsoft Word, Excel, and PowerPoint. Files with the label applied already will get this enhancement automatically too once it becomes available. Microsoft has urged IT admins to inform their respective helpdesk and compliance teams, update internal documentation, and review sensitivity labels to ensure that they meet their respective compliance needs. This change is tagged as MC1297982 in the Message Center. General availability is scheduled to begin in a phased manner soon and will complete by the end of next month. That said, it is important to note that this only applies to commercial customers who have a license that allows them to use Purview.
