killmore Posted August 14, 2002 Share Posted August 14, 2002 At my work www.battlefront.com has website has been disabled since it is games-related. If this happens to you try secure connection! Use "https" instead of "http" https://www.battlefront.com/ works great. To see this forum use: https://www.battlefront.com/cgi-bin/bbs/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=forum;f=1 You might have to do this a couple of times - but it seems to fool most Web-Filtering.

Wojtek Posted August 14, 2002 Share Posted August 14, 2002 Thanks for this killmore - now I don't need to use the Unix Netscape in order to bypass the work filter One more thing - do you know how to get rid of the message about mixing secure and non-secure items on the same page?

acrashb Posted August 14, 2002 Share Posted August 14, 2002 You can also try going through a proxy, which may not be blocked by your work filters. I use http://www.megaproxy.com/ and also the more famous http://www.anonymizer.com/ . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Madmatt Posted August 14, 2002 Share Posted August 14, 2002 That trick will only work up until I move the current ordering system from https://www.combatmission2.com to its more proper home of https://www.battlefront.com. I have no ETA on when I am going to do that, but it is planned. Madmatt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hans Posted August 14, 2002 Share Posted August 14, 2002 Blocking I work in an Arab country and one day after a thread on a future CMBO style game for the Arab-Israel wars my host nations proxy started blocking the site. (because Israel was mentioned and (gosh) Arab defeat) Took six months to get it back, and a lot of whining on my part to the censors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
