How To Access Facebook At School or Work

Here is one way (I’ll be posting more in the next few days under a new category called “how-to”) to gain access to the facebook website and ultimately your account at school or at work.

Many businesses and school use a firewall to block you from accessing websites. Most commonly they tend to filter out social networking and e-mail related websites, but this little tip may help you get pass their firewall (one point for you, zero for your loser boss or school administration. ha. ha.).

In todays how-to you’ll need to be able to download stuff on the computer you are at, if you do not have access to do that, than unfortunately this method will not work and you’ll have to wait for me to write up a different way (no worries…I’ll post something tomorrow hehe).

Ok, you ready? This is the easy way. ( it doesn’t work all the time, but it may depending on the type of firewall is set-up)

First, download Firefox by clicking here

If your not familiar with Firefox, it is a free browser that has loads of cool features not found in Internet Explorer — I have been using it for many years now and will never go back to Internet Explorer.

Firefox is rarely affected by the changes your work or school administration make, as most only affect Internet Explorer. More importantly Firefox has a built in proxy connection setting which allows you to enter in information you can get from a anonymous web surfing service which would allow you to get to any website you want even if it is blocked by a firewall.

So, try simply using Firefox, if that didn’t work than stay tuned as your situation may require a more complex solution. Don’t worry, I’ll save you!
