All email websites at work are firewalled. Is there any way I can get through the firewall and access gmail?

If your employer blocked GMail, likely they also blocked many of the proxy sites that would allow you to access it too. Sites do exist, but you have to ask yourself if it is worth the possible loss of your job for accessing those sites. The IT staff could monitor your web usage and if your employer has policies in place, they could report you.





If you have a valid business use for the web based email, talk with your IT staff for a solution.

What you need to do is go to a webproxy site. What that will do is bypass the filter and allow you to access restricted sites that are blocked at your work. If these sites are blocked at your work, you might have to create your own proxy to use. Here are a few you can use. (note that when you use these sites, when you get to them, you will have to type in the site you would like to view. For instance, google.com then gmail. now once you type that in, the filter will stay with you, so you can keep surfing and not have to go back to the proxy site.)

Reply:try a proxy server.
Reply:Try, disableing firewall:


start%26gt;control panel%26gt;windows firewall%26gt;off





although i doubt it's the firewall that's preventing you from acessing gmail since firewall is just to avoid getting your computer in un-secure networks, anyways good luck
