In my old job, a new director got web blocking software installed. Mainly cos he was a complete p**ck. It stopped access to commonly visited sites and obvious types of site.

So we basically got annoyed by this, and found the address of one of our competitors. 3 or 4 of us then hit their vacancy page constantly about once a second for about 20 minutes (we were on overtime). We were really annoyed.

Anyhows, the director then had a word with our manager about how all his teamleaders were obviously checking out competitors sites, and how he had to sort it out. The manager knew what we had been doing (he suggested it down the pub) and basically got the director to drop the software. Heh heh.

Funnily a bloke who worked at the competitor who we knew (used to work with us) then turned up at the pub 2 days later, wondering how we were all doing (after 2 years of not seeing him). Heh.

Cheers

I am 99% probably lying in bed right now... so don't blame me for crappy typing

Few tips from ol' HZ:

1.) If you have access to the command prompt, just type open it and type 'whois (website name...without the www)'. That'll give you the IP address. In some cases (not all) using the IP address in IE can get you around the darn thing.

2.) See if there isn't an alternate URL for the site you're trying to access. For example, my school has www.aim.com blocked; however, it doesn't have www.aolinstantmessenger.com blocked, lol.

Where I study, using a Proxy is enough.
I go to anonymouse.ws and I type the web page I want there.
Only problem is, it's a bit slow.

Yes, David T, I do enjoy the command prompt, but the stupid b*tch substitute had to tell the b*tch teacher about it, so we can't use the command prompt

websense is so gay and easy to get around my old school nevr did DNS checks so you could confuse websense in a fun little way also doing that command prompt ect ect.

But then again i also put keyloggers on the schools computers...good old teacher accounts =)

The search continues.

There is this program, net send destroyer, that you can use to get around the restriction. Very fun - in moderation. I personally haven't used it, but I've seen it used and it looks jolly good fun However people get suspicious when 1,000 messages are sent to their PC

Either that or open Excel, go into VBA and create a new form. Add a text box nad a button, double click on the button and type the following code:



Please note: I've never actually net sended / hacked somebody in my life. However fun it is, NET SEND is a bad idea because it's actually logged by the server!

All the time...

Open command prompt and type a line with this syntax:

Net Send (computer name) (message)

IE:

Net Send ORA17 hey what's up

You have to know the computer names, but ours have theirs stuck on them so that isn't a problem for us...heh.

Man oh man, have I had some experiences with large public school system networks and their rules. I took a CISCO certification class in 10th grade. It seemed that the majority of computers had Jedi Knight,Quake III and Unreal Tournament on them from previous years. We figured out how that if you renamed a file to "notepad.exe" or "calc.exe" then it would run. I think they set it up to only run the EXE's they specified. So that was the way around that. Obviously DOS prompt was blocked, so we just download Qbasic 4.5, re-named it's exe to "notepad.exe" and ran it, then went to command-prompt from there. One of my friends actually wrote a small program in QB to contantly send repeated messages to Denfeld High School (3 networked highschools in the city). Man oh man did he get in trouble though. It was funny while it lasted. But then the thing that pissed me off was when I got suspended for using WinZip. They even had screenshots of me doing it. GRR... I hate network software like that. It seemed as if they (administration) had been watching just the CISCO class computers ever since the NETSEND incident and caught me installing and using WinZip (gasp!!). What a load of crap, so I ended up leaving that school system before I served my "consequences" and got into a charter school that actually embraced computers and uses them to their full potential.

And that is my story. Oh yeah, my old school district did block by IP's as well.

Caught you installing WINZIP? The horror! How dare you! Obviously you were only going to use it to install games! Go see the principal right now young man

Yeah, they disabled the cmd prompt in our school as well so we wrote a similar Shell app but actually in VB and not Excel. Then they screwed around with the Net Send service so that wouldn't work. Now we use:

NetMessageBufferSend

Can specify the Server, To Name, From Name, and the message. Anonymous net sends a beautiful, they can't track us down!

The best part though is our school uses a UserID system for everything, so if your name was Brown, your UserID would be something like BRO0005 or BRO0006, it's unique so the number at the end would depend on who it was. The school has 2 apps on its LAN, the first records your UserID and the computer your own and saves it to a log file, the second is used for time tables but has a database with every person in the school, their userID, and other info (gender, etc). We linked these 2 apps with our net send app so we can basically just type in a name, our program checks through the database and grabs their UserID then runs through the log files and finds what computer they're on and sends an anonymous net send to them. Fun Fun!
