Make your own Facebook Proxy Browser

We all like using Facebook when we get a bit of down-time at school or work, but a lot of the time, network restrictions and firewall blocks means that all of the fun sites are blocked.  Many people also know however, that to open up a blocked site you can use a proxy.  However, not many people know how to use these, what they are, and how to combine it with your current browser to unblock sites.  The truth is that you don't need to pay a dime to use a Facebook proxy browser - you just need to learn a bit about how to use an open proxy.An open proxy is a kind of computer that allows other people to access it.  It's not a real computer, but its kind of like that.  When you sign into this "server", you can then ask it for stored information or ask it to retrieve information for you. This way, if you want to access Facebook from behind a firewall, instead of the firewall blocking you from going to the Facebook URL (and Facebook IP), the firewall probably won't care much about you accessing some random IP address (this time, the proxy server).  Essentially, you're rerouting your Internet traffic.Ok, so how do you get started?  First, you've got to find a proxy IP number and a port number.  These are both technical things that you don't need to worry too much about, but any list of proxies will also show you a port number that goes with it.  The proxy IP number will be maybe 6-9 number long, and the port number will be four. Make sure you list is updated so you don't get an expired IP!Then you've got to find the anonymous browsing settings of your browser.  Look for a tutorial on Google - there are a lot of browsers, and they're all different, so I won't get into it.  But once you find the anonymous browser settings, and set it to manual, you'll be able to enter the proxy and port number you just found.  Click 'OK' and you're done! You've now got your own Facebook proxy browser to unblock sites.If you run into the problem, it may be that your proxy is not anonymous enough, or the IP is old and your firewall has blocked it.  In this case, just try another proxy server or location!
