Google 'free proxy list', go to a site, read the FAQ and choose a server....it might take a few tries. You enter the IP and the port number in your 'connection' or 'LAN' tab in your web browser. Works like a charm for me. Happy reading. Information is free. Guys - there is a much cleaner way to do it - use an anonymous proxy server.

That is assuming that it has been blocked off on the DNS lookup. Anyone knows the Tanilnet IP? I dunno it maybe possible to access it using the IP of the server.
