goto the site:
Enter URL in the box and
BROWSE!! and FAST too.They have got multiple Dedicated Servers Running
This website 100% not blocked

Also they have a secure server mode *www.pagemod.com
Even Email and group Subscription to get updates on new domains
so to be sure you can access.. even if their primary domain gets blocked
No restrictions!!

I had this problem while I was studying in Australia.

I managed to get my university server addresses which were actually not disclosed to anyone by putting maska to our sysadmin for the Uni network. But just entering the addresses didn't help either because then the ports for everything except http was blocked...:( No mIRC, no torrents, no Limewire nothing...

Meri baat maan, download what you have to from HTTP mirrors. If you can't...tough luck. Unless you can bribe your network admin to open these ports for you...best of luck lol! :D

@Faraaz-That's Australia, this is India. Most colleges in India have a loophole in the system. You should see how our server and LAN is maintained. LMAO!! A script-kiddy's dream target :D

:phreakoutt: Yeah man, but then again, I'm not a genius net hacker either, am I?? All this ports nonsense I learned at the time while I was in Aus just so I could hack my way around it.

Luckily, we later found out that ONE computer room in our library was NOT connected to the proxy server...oh man, after that...we downloaded 700 MB movie files in 5 minutes, 4 GB game DVDs in like an hour!! It was mindblowing on that T3 connection...

But then, we got our accounts deactivated by the library people because we ended up downloading more than 40 GB in one month...
