Access Blocked Website Even If Domain and IP Are Blacklisted

If you are working behind a corporate firewall, most of your favorite websites might be blocked. It is true for offices, schools or colleges where even the domain name and IP address are blacklisted to prevent students and staff from going to certain websites like Facebook, Twitter, Naukri, PayPal etc. Another genuine need to access blocked websites is when a domain name is blacklisted by Internet Service Provider without user permission and the technical support is unable to unlock the ban. For a normal user, proxy software is enough to bypass the firewall block but think of a situation where you cannot use a proxy because either you do not have enough privilege to install a proxy application or all available web-based proxy servers are banned. It is really a frustrating situation. You do not need to worry even if proxy fails, there is another method to bypass the restriction even if the desired domain name and website IP address are blocked.

1. Use Tor
   
   This is my first suggestion and if you are unable to use this tool, then proceed to the second step.

2. Convert IP to Decimal Format
   
   We can use the decimal sum of a domain IP address to access it by bypassing the college or office firewall. Since the procedure is a little bit tricky, I will explain it with the help of an example. Here I am going to access Google on my computer using this trick.
   
   
   • Find IP Address of banned domain
     
     Before proceeding you must learn the IP address of the banned website. You can find it by following the steps below on a computer which is not protected by the firewall. Here Google is the domain I want to access.
     
     1. Open Command Prompt
        
        
     2. Type ping google.com and press enter
        
        
        Write down the address.
     
     
   • Covert the Decimal form of IP Address to Binary
     
     You can use a scientific calculator if you find it difficult.
     
     Here the IP address of Google is 74.125.45.100 and it will be converted to the set of octets.
     
     74 = 01001010
     
     125 = 01111101
     
     45 = 00101101
     
     100= 01100100
     
     Please make sure that it is a set of octets by adding 0 in front of the binary number where it cannot match 8 bits.
     
     So finally 74.125.45.100 will become;
     
     01001010.01111101.00101101.01100100
     
     
     
   • Take the sum of total
     
     To perform this step we need to remove the dots between the octets. The binary number will look like:
     
     01001010011111010010110101100100
     
     After conversion, we get 1249717604
     
     
     
   • Type the decimal number on the address bar
     
     Now we need to type the decimal number on the address bar of Internet Explorer as in the format http://1249717604 and it will be redirected to Google.com.
