How do Proxies Work?\nTo understsand how proxies work, you must first understand what a proxy is. \n\nProxies are servers. You connect to a proxy and the proxy connects to the website you want to visit; it acts like an intermediary. \n\nWhen you submit a website's URL into a proxy, what the proxy first does is retrieve the data of the foreign page. Then, depending on the settings you selected, it modifies the data accordingly. If you opt your proxy not to show images, it will strip all < img > html tags. If you don't want your proxy to show the main title, it will eliminate the < title > tag. This all happens before the data is sent to you; when a proxy is fast this happens in milliseconds. \n\nSo how is this useful? Well, since the proxy is the one to retrieve the data from the foreign website, your IP never appears in that site. Additionally, most proxies have Java Script security meassurements so you can be sure that you'll never catch a virus if you're using a proxy. Finally, some hackers use IPs obtained from logs in order to conduct a port scan and then hack someone's computer. By using a proxy, your IP will never appear in anyone computer and you can stop worrying about such hackers (some hackers have different methods). \n\nBesides security, proxies also help greatly to preserve your privacy. \n\nSome proxies have more options than others, read this article to find out more about how such options work.

A site that redirects you to the blocked site won't help you, the site will still be blocked.\n\nYou must search for annonymouse proxies, sites that browse the blocked site for you. That will work only if the proxy site itself isn't blocked. But normally that kind of sites are also blocked.\n\nThe last thing you can try is to view the page you are interested using cache sites. Google, Yahoo and many other search sites offers cache pages of the site you searched, so you can access the information in that way.\n\nOf course, not all the pages are cached, only a few of them, but them could be of help if you are desperate.

I'm sure it's not just because of the word proxy - I'm sure it's because they monitor where and when people go to these sites. When they see a repeat visit, they probably analyze the site or manually visit the site and block it.. \n\nEven if you find a good proxy site, again your going to be faced with the same issue - they will block it.

There are a ton of programs you can use for proxy servers. There are ones that you pay for like Secure Tunnel or Anonymizer or Findnot and list of free ones that you can manually set up or programs that find proxys for you like HideIP. \nIf the proxy uses a thing called socks5 you can download a free program like SOCKScap to run things like Yahoo Messenger, Bitcomet etc. through a proxy.

Proxy settings are used usually if you're behind a firewall and are usually provided by your ISP (Internet Service Provider). :D\n\nIf you're using a corporate account or the internet connection of company, your System Administrator would know what your Proxy is. \n\nYour proxy should look similar to this 103.206.3.0:81 (not exactly these digits.) where xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx is your proxy and :xx is the port your proxy goes through. :D Hope this helps.

If you are on a company network, then the administrator will have the "codes."  I'm not sure what you mean by listing those cities.  Technically speaking, entering proxy server info does not get you past a firewall.  Maybe you could post what you are trying to do or the problem you are having so we can help you better.\n\nBy the way, Yankee, folks come here because they need answers to questions.  Yahoo Answers?  Get it?  If they were experts then they wouldn't need the help.
