How to Access Facebook When it is Blocked in Office, School or Workplace
You may be a working professional in a corporate environment and the sad thing is that Facebook is blocked at your office. So you can neither open your Facebook account at office nor you can chat with your Facebook buddies. Recently, I was trying to access Facebook.com in my college using a Wi-Fi connection but the page never loaded. The same was true with Twitter and Orkut. The reason is that the majority of the social networking accounts are blocked in corporate offices, schools, workplace and educational institutions. In such cases, you have to look for workarounds to open Facebook when it is blocked. Here are some options to consider.
Access Facebook with a Secure Web Proxy
The easiest way to access Facebook when it is blocked is using a Secure Web Proxy. We have checked a few of them and the one we found at http://www.securitales.com was the best.The reason we liked it is that it does not require any installation and still supports Facebook Chat, Photo Upload and many of the games we tried. And of course, it is secure – all the traffic is https so everything is encrypted.It has a 10 minute free trial and the price is not so bad. [Related: Facebook Blocked At Work? Stay Connected With Email Instead]
Access Facebook.com Using IP Address
To open Facebook using an IP address has its advantages. Chances are that the administrator has blocked Facebook from the Windows host file. Following are the steps involved to open Facebook with an IP address:
1. Open the command prompt and type “Ping facebook.com”
2. You will see the IP address as shown in the above image. Just enter the IP address in the browser address bar and if you are lucky, Facebook may open.
Note: If you do not have administrative rights in the computer and you are unable to open command prompt for any reason, try to find the IP address of Facebook with this Online tool.
Access Facebook With Opera Mini Browser
If the above method doesn’t work you can use the web version of opera mini browser to open Facebook. Just open the Opera mini demo link in your browser and you can open Facebook homepage.
Opera mini is meant to surf the web from mobile phones and it is a great way to access blocked websites. You can access the mobile version of Facebook from http://m.facebook.com. [Related: Block Websites Using OpenDNS for Better Parental Control]
Access Facebook Using Proxy Websites
Another workaround may be using proxy servers to open Facebook and other social networking accounts. But most likely common proxy websites are also blocked which makes the trick useless sometimes.
Proxyheaven did the trick for me. Using proxyheaven I was able to open all of the social networking accounts e.g Facebook, Twitter, Orkut. Update: Nilesh pointed out in the comments about the OpenDNS method to access blocked sites. You can read more about the trick here. Do you know any special trick to open Facebook when it is blocked? Let us know via comments.
Man you’ve forgotten the simplest of all methods !
Use some other DNS server simple !
I’ve done this in my comp lab itself !
Their router blocks DNS requests from all except a few IPs.
I changed the machine’s DNS server to opendns and it worked.
@Nilesh: Honestly I do not know about open-DNS method. Can you elaborate ?
EXCELLENT!!!! it worked for me
Thanks Anajteli for your comment. Which one of the above trick worked for you?
None of the methods worked for me.
It’s unlikely that these methods didn’t work for you. Can you tell us where did you actually faced the problem? Thanks for your comment.
Simple solution:
Get back to work, stop fooling around on facebook and putting your computer at higher than normal risk for virii, and stop wasting the bandwidth you are not paying for.
If you’re not capable of getting around a simple blocked website in 3 clicks, you probably aren’t capable of fixing your computer when it’s chock full of the trojans and vundo variants that you will inevitably get from browsing facebook.
you people can try out
green unblocker.com
its great… and worked for me….
I tried accessing facebook using the IP address method and it DID load the welcome page but when i try to log in it simply doesn’t and I get a screen saying “internet explorer cannot open the webpage, most likely causes…”
anyone can help please?
@Roberta: Once you are logged in, paste the IP address in the browser address bar again and you will be fine.
All the methods stated above will not work in corporate environments where the web-sense or other such security is present. Still in search of a method to by pass web- sense, will post as soon as I have any new info….cheers
If the admin is using some applications like safesquid, non of the above method will work.
Oh man, I’ve tried so many times like all things above as you answered to Rebeca that( Once you are logged in, paste the IP address in the browser address bar again and you will be fine.)but still doesn’t work. So,this must be like as Raj said that if the admin using safesquid,non of the above method will work. Do you have some more ways I may try? thank’s
Yes, Simri, If the admin is using any such software to block certain websites, then these procedures won’t work. We will let you know once we have found a better alternative . Thanks for your comment .
Hi these tricks just open front page of facebook. Kindly suggest how can we post comment on Facebook when it’s blocked. I can can just read my Facebook comments but cannot reply to them.
Hi guys,I’ve tried this one and it works.
Browse to C:WINDOWSsystem32driversetc. In etc folder find the file name “host”, just open it in notepad. And you’ll see all the website that’s blocked by admin.
just find the line below and delete:
127.0.0.1 http://www.facebook.com
127.0.0.1 https://login.facebook.com/login.php?login_attempt=1
127.0.0.1 https://login.facebook.com
127.0.0.1 login.facebook.com
after delete them, just save it.
(don’t forget to backup the original “host” file so you can save it back after you using the FB).
OK guys, hopes it can help.
Proxyheaven.cn worked fine. i have just checked.
Thank you Muhammad
pls i need your help my network line is block from facebook, i cant even longin my acoount pls help me out…. inioluwa08@gmail.com
Thanks for providing this information about IP address. However, I am unable to login after the home page getting open through IP address. pls help
I have the same problem manish has. Using ip I can open the homepage but then I am unable to login. please help
@manish @Robby: If you can view the Facebook home page using the IP address method then be rest assured that the computer you are using hasn’t blocked facebook using professional website blocking software. You can check the Windows hosts file and remove the facebook entry from that file. Hope that helps
@Amit Banerjee thank you but where do I find the windows host file? in which directory please?
@Robby: You will find the Windows host file at C > Windows > System32 > drivers > etc
Through websense all IM chats were blocked, Some days i used JAVA application site to open chat, after 2 days they blocked that one also. Please provide some solution to open Gtalk
@Sridhar: Can you be more specific about which application is blocked? Is it the desktop Google talk or the web version [Gmail chat ] ?
Both applications are blocked
none of the above works in me … ;(
i try C:WINDOWSsystem32driversetc
the host file there is no facebook their it show
# Copyright (c) 1993-1999 Microsoft Corp.
#
# This is a sample HOSTS file used by Microsoft TCP/IP for Windows.
#
# This file contains the mappings of IP addresses to host names. Each
# entry should be kept on an individual line. The IP address should
# be placed in the first column followed by the corresponding host name.
# The IP address and the host name should be separated by at least one
# space.
#
# Additionally, comments (such as these) may be inserted on individual
# lines or following the machine name denoted by a ‘#’ symbol.
#
# For example:
#
# 102.54.94.97 rhino.acme.com # source server
# 38.25.63.10 x.acme.com # x client host
# 271.0.0.1 localhost
so what do i do nest
Your host file is okay and it is not used to block Facebook. Do you have administrative privileges in the computer you are using ?
my host file looks exactly like fdagbemi’s and it is ok but i do not have administrative privileges on the computer i am using. how can i overcome this problem please?
@Robby: Did you tried the proxy server trick to access Facebook?
@ahmed: Which Operating System you are using ? Have you checked the parental controls ?
tricks works but you just have to be creative a bit with the tricks and know that blocking of some of this social sites either by the school or corporate organization is for the benefit of the organization, you even come up with simple trick to do this things…
try using http://www.kproxy.com to open facebook when blocked.

@Johan: Have you checked the Windows Hosts file ? Do you have admin privilege on the computer ?
how to check the window hosts file and how do i know that i have admin privilege on my computer…please explain to me
@johan: The hosts file can be used to block any website on the clients computer.Browse to C:WINDOWSsystem32driversetc
You will find a hosts file, open it in notepad. See whether there is an entry in the last line which says something like
127.0.0.1 http://www.facebook.com facebook.com
If it’s there, simply delete that line and save the file. Try opening Facebook now and see whether it works.
i tried the C:WINDOWSsystem32driversetc
and it displayed the following:
# Copyright (c) 1993-2006 Microsoft Corp.
#

::1 localhost
what should i do next
@johan: This means you have admin priviledges and the website is not blocked from the hosts file. Which browser you are using ? Disable all extensions and add-ons, restart it and try again.
Also check for any programs in Windows task manager which may be blocking access to Facebook, try killing that process also.
In general, I use Google chrome and mozilla firefox. It might be the case that my apartment administrator has blocked facebook because when I bring the laptop to my friend’s apartment, its not a problem. i can login to my facebook account using the same laptop at my friend’s apartment.
@Johan:I think there is some problem with your routers preferences, try restarting the router with factory settings and then try again. Let us know whether that fixed the problem or not .
In my case, My office is using our own proxy server that block any chat site and facebook and also other proxy sites…Even using software to bypass such as ultrasurf still cannot connect to certain website…please help me here…
using IPadress I can enter the main page of facebook..but cannot login..Please provide details on how to use IP address for login websites…
Thank You…
still have problem. don’t know what to do next
@Johan: We are looking into the problem and will post a solution as soon as we can.

Hi, tried all ideas but doesn’t work for me, in address bar it says: http://192.151.106.51/Externals/access_denied.htm
from some sources i came to know it is blocked by our network server.
If you are completely blocked out of facebook, twitter and/or youtube at work, GET A VPN… I use VPN Authority http://www.vpnauthority.com – anyways, it works well, and seems quite reliable with a US and european server. Anyways, it’s good IMO. :) Cheers and Beers!

Amit,
one thing, i m not sure if it related, my facebook was banned after I back from China — in China , facebook blocked..
@Elmo: Your host file seems to be all right. There must be a firewall or network blocker software installed in your computer network which is blocking access to Facebook.
I tried my best to open facebook using proxy websites. Using proxy sites, I can open my Facebook account but the content of my account e.g Facebook news feed, profile, friends and chat are disabled. Please tell me how can i use Facebook, orkut and some other websites that are blocked in my office.
just delete the hosts file… and whala!!!! enjoy ur facebook.
Opera mini demo link worked well!!! but not that photo update!! images are small :( !!! thought better then nothing !!!! :D thanks guyss!!!
people,, none of these ideas will work in your office
because in offices they will not give you the
administrator priviledge. even if you have the administrative privilages, you would be required to configure the whole system to remove any constraints on facebook ..and i am sure you might not be having the idea as to how the configuration has been done

in our college they block every thing the my computer also we can’t see the drives for that give any comment
You do realise that most workplaces have Facebook blocked for a reason.. There are apps on Facebook which can access your local information and pass sensitive information back to hackers.. (before anyone trys to argue against this try a Google serch about malicious Facebook plugins)
Also, something you may not know, using avoidance techniques like this are usually classed as gross misconduct, which means you will get sacked!

A very easy trick that once worked for me: if you only have Internet Explorer, download firefox. Nothing was blocked on that browser. On other jobs that didn’t work though, but it’s worth a try
In my college Facebook is blocked.What my friends do is they add ‘s’ to the http i.e https://www.facebook.com/ but somehow their ip address get traced by college IT lab and ultimately get warning as to not access it again.I am curious about how can we get access to the blocked sites without even getting caught?
I have a simple trick to open facebok when it is blocked in office or school, just open http://translate.google.com/ then open facebook site (www.facebook.com) and translate it to english too, very simple.
Sorry if i have false word,because i still grade 5 in Indonesia

It’s blocked in my office also….i tried https://facebook.com and the site gets opened…but again after logging in, it says blocked….then i gave https://login.facebook.com and bingo….it works ;-)
happy facebooking !!!
2 sai, Approach that you described works, but unfortunately you are not able to use all facebook’s stuffs, to visit friend’s pages, you cannot play games if you have ones ect. All you can do it is see your own page with some news on it those can be read.

Hey Amit,
I can’t login using the ip of facebook.com…:(
It’s still showing..site blocked…
@Abhisek: First off, nice to see your comment here. The thing is that whatever methods you use, if the IT guy of your office is using a network monitoring program, none of these tricks will ever work. You can try the mobile version of Facebook though, might just work.

to all, kindly use http://www.vi-vn.connect.facebook.com 100 percent you can chat on facebook. :)
Maybe your being blocked because your at work and should be working and not F-ing off while others work.
I can tell you that where I work – anyone using ANY of these methods and getting caught has their account immediately disabled! No arguing about it either as we do monitor all applications and do keystroke logging on ALL machines.
My problem is I can get into FB, but I cant play any of the games, I would like to be able to access Farmville. We are blocked by some kind of ISD filter, none of the methods above work, all proxy sites are blocked, many of the links above states that the security certificate is not authorized. We are blocked from Youtube as well, but found http://www.youtube-nocookie.com/ that lets me in without any problems!
omg i cant find any sites that link up to facebook could someone help me , cause im getting soooooooo bored doing school work !!
Would you even consider losing your job over accessing your fb account???? Seriously?? SMH – Get back to work and for you students.. get your assignments done! SHAME ON ALL OF YOU!!
you are all missing the best way to do this you need to down load tor on your personal computer then put it on a jumpdrive
I’m in school, and i cannot access my facebook acount, and i’ve tried all the ways above, what do I do?
add an (s) on to http so it is https
my company blocked FB, Itired every thing mentioned by Amit bud does not working
Access Denied
Your company policy doesn’t allow you to browse this url http://www.facebook.com/
Site blocked
——————————————————————————–
USER: 8798
IP: 172.21.5.72
Site in Blocked Category SocialNetworking for group Default
Please contact your System Administrator
pretty basic stuff explained here,
however if your admin (like me) has modified the hosts file on your pc (which makes sense if you are a small company) none of your proxy/ip stuff won’t work as the domain is blocked on the local machine rather a router, server etc…
Opera mini works fine – imho – if you are so desperate to browse facebook or other site in this simulator – just get another job… really!
tracertom – Am not able to use FB & Orkut can to send me a good solution….
This crap don’t work!!!!! I’ve tried at school a million times and it don’t work……
@ Patricia – the one allll the way towards the top… LMFAO hahah those comments were funny as hell.. and i totally get yer need of fb:(… Fer everyone else, unless you have admin priveleges, the editing the host file will NOT work cuz u wont be able to save it, your best bet is to either A.) enter “https://www.facebook.com” into the address bar, you will be taken to fb unless someones blocked https. and when you login simply delete the w/e url till it’s at “facebook.com…..” and insert https:// and you’ll gain access to it again. or use a proxy server, but most don’t let you login, so the other alternative is to use logmein.com if that doesn’t get blocked. It’s a program that u put on your home computer or w/e someplace that fb is NOT blocked, and u can go onto logmein.com at schoool or work or someplace, loginto your computer at home from the one your at while your at school or work or w/e, and creep it up on fb. hope this helps all you teens… i’m almost 20 :( gettin old :( :(

Dear Moderator…
we are very thankful to u.
but the problm is im in a office where WATCHGAURD FIREWALL is installed.. and all the social sites email sites are blocked by our IT dept. i have tried these all options… they were working for some days.. now they have done something that none of SSL page opens… and im not able to login into my any account.. plz help if u have any suggestion. Thanks,,,
All interesting comments, for over a year, many trying to get out of work or going to school… Students, isn’t there a STBX with free wifi in your school area?
Workers, come on, 10% unemployment and you are ready to get fired over FB? Please. Maybe you should give your job to someone who wants it.
We stop social networking at work so we can make some money. What a concept. You get paid to work, not goof off.
I feel sorry for you all.
But thanks, I have learned of some additional sites I need to block.

Hi guys,I’ve tried this one and it works.
Browse to C:WINDOWSsystem32driversetc. In etc folder find the file name “host”, just open it in notepad. And you’ll see all the website that’s blocked by admin.
just find the line below and delete:
127.0.0.1 http://www.facebook.com
127.0.0.1 https://login.facebook.com/login.php?login_attempt=1
127.0.0.1 https://login.facebook.com
127.0.0.1 login.facebook.com
after delete them, just save it.
(don’t forget to backup the original “host” file so you can save it back after you using the FB).
OK guys, hopes it can help.

hi friend i am jagdeep u open the facebook in many type
first of aal go to run enter and type cmd and enter
then type ping http://www.facebook.com
u look reply from 69.171.224.12
many time they change the ip address
then copy the 69.171.224.12 and to the paste on the address bar and press enter then the fb open nice
its works
people. in the end this is all a game of cat and mouse. if your IT folks have made a half-hearted attempt to stop you from FB, you can still find ways around their efforts using the techniques mentioned above. it is important to note though that if the IT department has done their homework every single thing you try can be blocked and there is no way for you to get around it. i say this because some people seem to be thinking there is always some way. not true here. what is worse, IT can track every single thing you do from your machine. if management has flagged FB as a problem in your company, they probable already are. so be careful.
Hi friends! This is Pardy from Haryana(INDIA).
I am working in an International KPO and as like others companies, facebook is banned here. I was trying from many days to find proxy website of facebook. So friends! lastly i found it and it is 100% sure working. You can try it: http://www.lankaoil.com
Ive tried everything..neither does opera mini works nor any other proxy site. My office has SoniWall firewall..Plz suggest..
Kanika,
SonicWall firewalls are one of the best, that’s why we use them.
Why do you feel the need to access FB at work? If your company prohibts access it must be for a reason, and if you’re caught, it could be a dismissal offense. IS it worth it? Don’t forget, no matter how anyone gets to the “outside” the sonicwall provides all IP tracking, so your footsteps in the “net” can be used against you.
You idiots are going to get your account locked or may be fired. Once IT catches you trying to bypass security methods then if it’s at the workplace then your fired. If you’re at university then you’ll probably just get locked out of your login account.
In my college they are using cyberoam for banning all sites,chats etc.
no one can do nothing
hi guys i have also the same problem as mention above. all the websites can open olny the facebook is blocked by admin of our office so don’t know wt to do?
facebook is blocked! is there another way i can log in? a different web site?
Hey, all
So if you guys want to chat with facebook friends and see your friends latest activities you can upgrade your skype or sign in to skype and they have a new aplication that helps you chat with tour facebook friends and see the most important things your friends do, like post pics and coments, but not all of them.
But I have a problem, in my office they blocked using key words, for example if you type facebook on google, google wont do anything it wont even look for it, same things happens with hotmail, twitter and other pages, the systems guy blcked key words, so for example he blocked ares so you cant download music, but if you look in google for softwares, since you see in the end of the word there is ares it wont look for it, it blockes the page.
Now can anyone help me with this, all of the above solutions dont work, because he even blocked the word proxy, and other proxypages dont work.
Can anyone help, if not i’m going to have to buy a smartphone..
Oh and PS for those of you that dont have a very blocked network lime mine, download programs like tweetdeck, and you can see you facebook and twitter updates.
please help me………….
