in reply to Site Blocker Work Around CGI help

I want to be able to logon via this URL ...
http://localhost/cgi-bin/way.pl?url=http://www.itsyourturn.com/iyt.dll +?status?p=1
Eh? It won't work on localhost. Your "proxy" must reside on a server outside of the firewall. And of course, the domain your proxy is on may not be blocked, itself.

    Or just ssh into a *nix box and use lynx ... that's what I do :/
      You don't even have to use lynx, ssh can pipe X-windows through the encrypted channel and display it on your local monitor! Go ahead and use Netscape or play Bolo. . .

      Ahem, this is all in theory, as I have never done anything like it, no no, not me. I'm not condoning this at all. :^)
