    An alternative method of accessing friendster is via their domain IP unless DansGuardian filtering methods includes IP filtering as well however my advice to you is, if it's blocked then you shouldn't be circumventing it in the first place or you might get yourself into unnecessary trouble. Cheerz

    Friendster is primarily used for 'entertainment' purposes, just like why IMs are blocked at most places.

    Yea, Friendster is for entertainment purpose if you look from one angle, but the main purpose is still for communication, don't you agree? Anyway I only use Friendster for its messaging, there's nothing illegal to it, i assure you.

    There's nothing illegal about Friendster, so are all the IMs. If it's nothing aiding in productivity, they will block. No questions asked.

    Whatever la...The problem is the university is so out of civilization's reach, the housing area around doesn't even have a fixed telephone line and also no wireless connectivity. So all the online activities have to be done in the com lab....no other choice. I just need to gain access into Friendster, that's all.

    Maybe you could install another browser or basically access the site without using IE. Or run a script to enable cookies.

    DAMN!!! FireFox also can't be used to access Friendster. The message "This web site uses Cookies to log you in. Please ensure that Cookies are enabled in your browser, and then try again." still comes up although I enabled cookies in FireFox. Is there any way to fix this problem??

    hmm....can you try edit the cookies settings in internet options panel?? :confused:

    control panel-> internet options->privacy
    scroll down to web sites and click on edit button, then edit the cookies settings from there.... :shifty:

    i doubt that u can just change the settings because you're not logged in as administrator...... :shifty:

    It's got nothing to do with the browser or the cookie settings.

    You need to login to the website using the proper URL, because that's how the cookie works.

  19. *Rant from an IT guy

    We block URLs for reasons, many of them because they have casued issues on computers that we have wasted countless hours fixing. Or... Administration has told us to do so. So if you get caught you will have one P*$$ed off IT guy riding your butt until you graduate.

    Because the URL is blocked at the firewall there is no way to get around it. Even if you go directly to the IP address, the web page coding and cookies all call for the URL name not the IP address. As the page tries to access more info it will be blocked.

    All the warnings aside...

    You said you installed Firefox, so now all you need to do is:
    Now a few things you should know
    • A proxy works as follows: The computer you are on connects to the proxy IP (outside computer) then the proxy will access friendster and send the info back to you. You are only accessing that computer so the IT dept, has no idea where you are going. Unless the have screen viewers installed.
    • Your IT department can block a proxy IP, but with so many at your disposal you can just switch to a new one in less than 1 second.
    • A proxy will slow down your web browsing some will be verry slow
    • CHANGE YOU FRIENDSTER PASSWORD OFTEN You are accessing all your info through another computer therfor it is sending out your username and password for you. Generally there are no risks, but you never know.
