The Solution to Internet Censorship
December 19, 2007 by Vienna
I got the solution to my biggest blogging problem! I got tired of those proxy sites that limit what you can do with blocked sites so I asked around. I asked people (ex-pats and Chinese citizens) who are having the same problem and viola! I got a software (from a Chinese friend of a friend of mine—hehe) that allows me to surf blocked sites. I can now load, edit, customize, manage, and view my WordPress.com blog without a problem. It’s like surfing a non-blocked site.
It is a small program that you can run only with Windows Internet Explorer (sorry to firefox users). Freegate6.6Professional is a software that allows you to surf blocked sites. It’s so easy to use. I don’t know if it is working in other countries but it is very effective here in China (evil laugh at GFWC). And I also don’t know if you can download it from the net. I tried to search for it but I just got two results from Mr. Mighty Google so anybody who is interested, you may leave a comment under this post and I will email you the software and don’t worry because I won’t charge you. I got it for free and I am passing it for free. If you can find it anywhere in the net then good for you but if not, don’t be shy to ask me.
Hi, great article. How can I get the software? My email is pat_togo@hotmail.com
Cheers,
Chris
i have sent you the software in zip file already.
Unzip it then close all internet explorer windows before running the program. It should work fine.
You dont need to put your email on the message box… just fill the box that ask for your email. In this way, your email will not be published. i, as the administrator of this blog, will be the only one to see it.

Hey guys you can also use Freegate or Ultrasurf with Firefox, opera, maxthon or any other browsers on this planet…!!!
You just have to type 127.0.0.1 in the proxy field of your favorite browser, 8567 as port no. (for freegate) and 9666 as port no. for ultrasurf. Yeah! it’s that simple!!
Download Ultrasurf from their homepage:

Hi,
Can you please send me the software? Thanks alot!!
I also feel the same level of frustration as with anyone who’s living in china regarding blocked sites. Can I ask for the software that you used for surfing censored sites (I’ve been praying for the day it would come!)? is there any way it can be used in firefox? Thanks!
I’ve downloaded and installed the ultrasurf too but don’t know kung paano to use it in firefox.
just curious, which part of the philippines are you from? =) I’m from the Cebu island.

Hi,
I’ve had Ultrasurf for a few months and since last Wednesday, it no longer gives me access to blocked sites. Can you please send me the freegate program? Is it as fast as Ultrasurf? I tried TOR, GPass and GTunnel, but they’re too slow.
Thanks,
Tom
Hi there, m really in need of this software, i have lost all my friends contacts due to this new blocking system in our office …. :((
Plzzz plzzz mail me ASAP…!!!
i live in iran
1-PLEASE DO NOT USE FREEGATE FOR DOWNLOADING PORN BECAUSE THIS WASTE THE BANDWIDTH OF DYNAWEB SERVERS SO PEOPLE THAT REALLY NEEDS IT CANT USE IT
2-you can use freegate with firefox just change the proxy setting of firefox (as shown in the status tab of the freegate).
3-DO NOT forget to enable the SET/CANCEL SECURE TUNNEL option because without stunnel traffic encryption YOU WILL BE monitored and traced easily by the goverment agents
4-you can download freegate and other anti-internet censureship progs from : internetfreedom.org
5-the encrypter only dont works for people in the free countries,so it cant be used by terrorist or … communications but in iran and china it works GREAT
Could you please mail it to me?
thanks a lot
Mack
