My work block a lot of websites, all image hosting sites are blocked. Usually you get a web page telling you it's been classified as media sharing or whatever and that's why it's blocked. Today I can't access the OcUK forum, I can still get to the shop ok but not the forum, or AVForums. I get a screen saying page not available, it mentions DNS lookup failed.

How can I get round this? I can't survive with my daily dose of you guys.

Please help, I'm cold turkey here, posting from my phone isn't the best.

I just hope no one links him to IP addresses of naughty sites pretending they are something else - and yes Ive never done that to anyone before ;):p

They would block anything remotely interesting anyway dont worry.

Looks like they fixed it already, or the DNS server woke up.

Cheers guys, I can do some work now :D

Kproxy seems to bypass Fortiguard if anyone's interested. Obviously don't use it for sensitive browsing i.e. anything that includes personal details etc.

I have also tried using a WOL on my phone then using a VPN to my home PC.

Kproxy is blocked lol, as is logmein.

OcUK isn't blocked though so I'm free to browse, making me a happy and more efficient worker.
