    Is there a way to host your own proxy with your own internet connection from a host computer at your house to use on another computer remotely?

    So the one from peacefire.org will host it from my computer. I can't use a online proxy because my school blocks all of those. If this works. I will give you much thanks. My school blocks so many websites that it's almost impossible to do anything on their computers.

    Try using the http proxies from peacefire first. Remember intead of http: use https://www......

    And yes, you can host your own proxies using peacefire.org's guide.

    Ultrasurf and Gpass will also work.

    Also... bypassing censorship isn't the same as bypassing security measures so there's no forum rules to be broken.
