How to Bypass a Firewall or Internet Filter

January 5th, 2011 1 comment

Firewall or Internet filter..
Well, there are several methods.. this one is quite simple one and works about 70% cases.. it is called Browsing through IP..

  1. Go to START -> Run. Enter cmd and hit enter, or click on START -> Program Files -> Accessories -> Command Prompt to open the Command Prompt window.
  2. If your school has disabled access to the command prompt, right click, go to New, and select Text Document. In the text document simply type cmd then save the file as command.bat or, if this doesn’t work, command.com Make sure you switch the Save As Type field in Notepad’s Save dialogue to All Files. Double Click and you have successfully gained access to the command prompt.
  3. If that doesn’t work, perform the following steps at home/place where it isnt blocked and bring the IP address to place u want to access that.
  4. Once in the Command Prompt, enter ping x, replacing the x with any website of your choice. For example, if you are looking to access Google, then you would enter ping google.com into the prompt [leave out the HTTP://]. You can also use the nslookup command in a similar fashion. Using the same site as an example you can type nslookup www.google.com at the command prompt. Just be sure to refer to the Non-authoritative Answer for the steps that follow.
  5. You will see a set of four numbers [here, 72.14.207.99] is Google’s IP address.
  6. Open your browser window. In the address bar, type http://x.x.x.x/, replacing the x’s with the ping address, and hit enter [for example, http://72.14.207.99/]. This will give you access to Google.
  7. If the web filter blocked even the IP address of the site, you can take each number in the IP and convert it to a Hexadecimal format. Then in the browser enter http:// 0x(hex1).0x(hex2).0x(hex3).0x(hex4).
  8. Note: This method is very easy to trace!

I hope u will find this helpful :)

Dont Use Internet Explorer 6 (Upgrade to IE 8)

September 2nd, 2010 2 comments

They’ve done studies you know, 60% of the time it works, every time.
It’s been 8 long years since the release of Internet Explorer 6. For the past 4 years IE6 has been terrorizing hundreds of thousands of Web Developers worldwide, from New York to Bangladesh.

This History

Internet Explorer 6 was born into war at the climax of the infamous 1990’s browser war. At the time Microsoft was battling Netscape for its seat as the big honcho of the Internet world. The release of IE6 put the nail in the coffin on the 90’s browsers war; crushing Netscape and leading them to their eventual bankruptcy. Since the late 90’s, new browsers such as Firefox, Safari, and Google Chrome have stepped up to the plate to challenge Microsoft’s once unmatchable prestige. Stepping away from table based designs, into what we in the industry call “The Semantic Web”, the separation of content, design, and functionality.

The Problem

What’s that mean to the Average ? If you’re using Internet Explorer 6, your internet experience is kind of like using a screw driver when you have an electric drill readily available. You’re using archaic technology, which serves no purpose in our ever changing world. EVERY supported browser to date; besides IE6 supports web standards, this includes… Firefox 2, Firefox 3, Internet Explorer 7, Internet Explorer 8, Safari, Google Chrome, and yes even Opera.
Why to upgrade from IE6:

•No Web Standards Support
•20% more time, and work to develop
•20% longer clients have to wait for their product
•Multi-million dollar corporations such as Google, Yahoo, and 37 Signals (developers of famous web solutions such as Base camp management system) have stopped supporting IE6
•It was ranked 8 by PC World as one of the worst tech products of all time
•17% of people in the world use IE6 and the numbers are shrinking rapidly every single day!
•Its 8 years old… What other technology are you using that is 8 years old? Imagine still using one of those Cell Phones that you had to keep plugged into the cigarette lighter of your car; that’s how old of technology you are using with IE6.
•And many, MANY, more reasons…

The Solution

UPGRADE! This is by no means a bashing of Microsoft; I use Windows based PC every day, all day to work as a developer, designer, and internet user. I’m not a Mac fanatic, in fact quite the opposite.

Upgrade Internet Explorer: Microsoft has released 2 full versions of their browser since the release of IE6, both very good solutions. On March 19th, 2009 Microsoft released its newest addition to the Microsoft family, IE8. This is fully compatible, fully functional, and has had extensive security updates since its predecessor IE7. Download IE8 Today!

Mozilla Firefox: Better yet, make a switch. Mozilla’s Firefox has been slowly but surely taking over the market in the current Browser war. It has a HUGE following in the web development community, and is now hitting the 50% mark for worldwide browser usage. It is neck and neck with Internet Explorer. Download Firefox Today!

Giant Internet worm to change tactics April 1 Time Bomb

March 28th, 2009 2 comments

The fast-moving Conficker computer worm, a scourge of the Internet that has infected at least 3 million PCs, is set to spring to life in a new way on Wednesday — April Fools’ Day.

That’s when many of the poisoned machines will get more aggressive about “phoning home” to the worm’s creators over the Internet. When that happens, the bad guys behind the worm will be able to trigger the program to send spam, spread more infections, clog networks with traffic, or try and bring down Web sites.

Technically, this could cause havoc, from massive network outages to the creation of a cyberweapon of mass destruction that attacks government computers. But researchers who have been tracking Conficker say the date will probably come and go quietly.
