Ever been in the situation where you are blocked off certain websites in your school or your workspace? Hate not being able to slack off because of the blocked websites ? There's an easy fix for it. And it does not require a proxy server. The reason that I don't suggest using a proxy server is because 99.9% of proxies are blocked out of most computer networks. So it does not usually be an effective option to get around blocked websites. So here are the two methods to get around blocked websites without using a proxy server.

1. UltraSurf

   UltraSurf allows you to access every single page on the internet with a guarantee of completely transparent data transfer and high level encryption which also maintains security while you browse the web. And you don't even have to worry about being caught because UltraSurf establishes a connection through one of three servers.

   After establishing a successful connection with one of the preferred servers it will automatically open up the internet explorer browser. Now don't get let down by this. Because it isn't slow at all. In fact it is extremely fast. It just opens the internet explorer browser to prevent the administrators from noticing anything fishy in their logs because most places don't have Mozilla Firefox. After the internet browser opens you will notice a golden lock at the right bottom corner of the computer screen.

   You can remove this by clicking on options in the ultrasurf window where you see the servers. After clicking options check the box where it says ''hide golden lock''. After you fire up ultrasurf again the lock will be gone. When the internet browser opens you will be presented with the ultrasurf page.

   From here you can browse the web freely. Once you're done with slacking off you can close ultrasurf and choose to close internet explorer along with it or keep internet explorer and close ultrasurf.

   Access Internet Without proxy

   This is where this method ends.

2. XeroBank

   XeroBank is an anonymous web browser that is designed to run on both the Tor and XeroBank anonymity networks. As such, a secure and encrypted connection to any of the Tor or XeroBank routers can be created from any computer with a suitable internet connection, and the browser clears all data that was created on the portable drive upon exit or on demand. xB Browser works by routing Internet traffic through several "onion" servers,which cause the originating address to be obscured.. This does not naturally provide anonymity for other Internet programs, only the xB Browser. XeroBank browser “is the most popular anonymous web browser in the world” according to the developers, and could be true. I’m Just not sure of too many other browsers competing in that space. I would not recommend using the XeroBank Browser on a regular basis as it lacks certain features of the current popular browsers like chrome and firefox. But then again, this is not what we want it for . We want it because of it's portability. You can install XeroBank on a portable device like a thumb drive and freely access the internet using the anonymous network.

So, just put both of these applications on your usb drive and fire it up on the computer in which you want to access blocked websites.

I personally recommend using UltraSurf because it is much faster than XeroBank and XeroBank takes a long time to connect to Tor (anonymous network).
But I'm sure a lot of you people out there are using different methods to access the internet. Perhaps you know of better methods then the ones mentioned above? Please share your thoughts and methods in the comments below.
