My work has blocked MySpace for a long time. It’s no big deal, I don’t use MySpace much anyway. I set up my own copy of and it was serving me well. Today I noticed that apparently eBay and Photobucket have also been blocked, or are at least not coming up – but they do fine through my proxy. Ditto for , which I just wanted to check out but couldn’t get to…huh. Anyway, it’s rather annoying that Photobucket is blocked, because this screws up my LiveJournal friends page…feh. I will have to re-host the images via Imageshack or something.
But even more annoying is that MySpace is apparently now channeling your login through a secure server…which CGIProxy doesn’t want to let me access. It should work, as far as I can tell…I have taken care of. I’m not running on a secure server, but this is for accessing MySpace, not processing payment information – I don’t care if it’s secure. But the error message I’m getting is basically “zomg somebody might EAVESDROP on you wtfbbqpolarbear!!!eleventy1one!!” Again…it’s MySpace. I don’t care. Please to be allowing me to talk to the secure server now.
If anybody has a secure server and wants to host a password-protected (.htpasswd is fine) copy of CGIProxy for me, that would be teh awes0me. Meanwhile I will wait to hear back from the script author.
Added: Oh, YouTube is blocked too.
Update: The script author clued me in to $OVERRIDE_SECURITY and all is well now. Except for Photobucket, because I can’t add pictures to the albums at all…sigh.
Dude try . I am renting from them 2 proxies and they get me into myspace and youtube just fine. I haven’t tried it for photobucket or whatever but for doing blackhat shit and stuff, I recommend them for proxies. Yes they’re anonymous and super fast and nobody is sharing the ones you rent. Shit is so cash!
