I think SirCmpwn should use a portable anonymous web browser running from a flash drive (can be easily hidden). Firefox 3.6 can do the trick.
We were following up on this

-If I remember they bruteforced his passwords for e-mail and stuff a few times too.
No, they just threatened to destroy my calculator if I didn't tell them.
that's so sad.

Altough maybe his parents could eventually notice something weird and discover about the flash drive. Also what if the computer has all USB ports disabled (like at the Internet Cafe I used in 2007 when I had no internet at home) or no USB port at all?
It can happen. Also I have seen computers very restricted overall on purpose. It is rare but you can only browse the Internet practically for research, you can't execute anything except notepad, wordpad, paint, calculator, my documents folder, IE and OpenOffice.
At College library, half of the computers were so restricted that even notepad, desktop icons, wordpad and the like were disabled and we couldn't even open exe/zip files

EDIT: 9999 posts o.o

DJ, you have 9999 posts!
Anyway, that's ridiculous. Even notepad? I mean, really? Well, at least our dear friend is nowhere near as bad off (or so I hope)

Woah!  9999 posts!
Also, my school tried to block executables on a flash drive, but me and the other nerds had already convinced the teachers about how to use portable apps, and they complained so much that the school stopped blocking them.  It didn't matter anyway, because we figured out you could just copy the programs to the C: drive and run them from there instead XD
Anyway, all the computers in my school are on a LAN, so we play each other in UT and Armegettron all the time.

Yeah I sure hope he doesn't receive bad treatments or going through extreme bad shit like some other people I knew online. I also hope he can continue working on calc projects too since it's his favorite hobby and it would suck if he got his stuff taken away

i'm using the world browser, it's really cool except it's like IE in the way it may display things incorrectly. for example, on omnimaga there's a random blank space at the top of the page. even facebook thinks it's an old version of IE:
"You're using an old version of Internet Explorer to browse Facebook right now. Facebook will work better for you if you upgrade or switch to another browser.
"

congrats on the 10,000th post DJ!

Ouch x.x is there a way to make it use another engine? Also how does it works? Does it just use proxies to browse sites?

What would be the use of that browser then? Is it just like Avant Browser, something using IE engine but adding new features (in the case of Avant, it added tabbed browsing and pop-up blocking for IE6 users back before IE7 came out)

I feel the same way.  Everyone here is praising its awesomeness, but I don't notice anything that great.  It's just another browser, heck, it's a browser with a faulty display engine.

Just curious, if there isn't that much of an issue as of right now why are we still looking for solutions? :P

Just in case there are issues again soon :P

In fact, he was supposed to have Omni, Cemetech and IRC unblocked early June, then suddently one day he stopped showing up on IRC altogether then about two days later, he told me Omni was blocked again. (which is when I got pissed and posted that topic). The day after, Cemetech got blocked and Omni unblocked. Now both are unblocked, but for how long?

Why are the blocking calc sites?  It makes no sense.
