Pretty simple proxy at the end of the day, just another web tunnel, but this one is free and works pretty well so you can access forums, chatsites or other sites that could have been blocked from work or school...for instance

I am still trying to find a proxy that shows me as being in the UK so I can amongst other things listen to UK only Internt Radio shows.

If anybody has a any options, please shout.

if you want a quality stream, you'll have to probably pay for a proxery service, there are plenty of free one's but usually have such low bandwidth that tv/radio streams tend to be a bit shite...

Anyway, using software to work as a tunnel, there's plenty if anyone can be bothered to try them...use to use one at uni that worked a treat, but can't remember what it's called, but here's plenty of others:

http://www.http-tunnel.com/html/

That second one is probably more reliable and faster...

I think you'll need a proxy which supports HTTPS for that.

Okay, can someone else check and see if this link still works? Maybe they just caught on at work, cus I can't access it any longer.

http://anonymouse.org/anonwww.html Try that....it's a web proxy that hides all your info like OS, browser etc.

Though there's probably plenty of web based proxies
