Access Facebook
Free Gate
The program takes advantage of a range of open proxies, which allow users to penetrate firewalls used to block web sites. But the problem is that this program only allows few websites. i found that Facebook will work perfectly in this. Twitter is also accessible but will not work perfectly.

Access Internet without registering your computer
Our college’s Computer Network Cell (CNC) uses Endian Firewall it is configured such that only registered computers are allowed to access Internet. They filter that using MAC address. It is a unique hardware address, no 2 WiFi or LAN adapter will have the same MAC address.
To access internet without registering, you need to get your friend’s MAC Address which is registered in CNC. Type ifconfig in gnu/Linux terminal or type ipconfig -a in windows to get MAC address (Note that in gnu/Linux MAC address is said as hardware address, so it will be shown as HWAddr). Then change the MAC Address of un-registered computer to a registered MAC Address. This post will help you to change MAC address. In gnu/Linux you need to set the MAC address every time when you restart.
More updates coming soon…!
