Thread: unblocking myspace

this is a highly over used question everywhere in the world, but with so many people having it blocked it makes sense.

my uncle blocked my myspace account, and i cant find out how he did it. i reset my router, checked the host files in the windows portion of the pc, and checked under internet options... NOTHING says it cant go to myspace.

i will explain what it does:

i type in myspace.com, and it starts to go there. then i get a res://ieframe.dll/dnserror.htm thing in the top part of the page. then it goes to mywebsearch.com and it says it cant find myspace. it of course has a link to myspace in the search page, and when i click it it says that internet explorer cant view the webpage.

anyone have any ideas how to get it unblocked?

my uncle was suppsoed to, but he got taken off somewhere else, and i cant communicate with him as to how he did it...

And i have over used proxys such as www.kproxy.com and those, they just suck and you cant do anything on myspace with them

anyone know how to unblock it forever??

Well, that depends on how it was blocked. I would first open a command line and do something like "ping www.myspace.com" to see if it's some silly browser-level thing (which it almost certainly isn't).

Go into your routers web interface (usually 192.168.0.1 or something - you can figure it out by running ipconfig and looking at the default gateway). The company default user/password combo is usually admin/admin (or admin/<blank> or user/user or something stupid like that). If your uncle knows how to block stuff at the router level, he probably changed the password, too.

why did he block it in the first place?

Good riddance to bad rubbish IMO

I was 14 at the time he blocked it, and he forgot and i just starting using this pc again since my other broke down and so now its blocked for me.

And yes i did the router thing, i reset it and everything, but it still has the same problem. and the ping thing isnt right either.

Well, could you provide an nslookup result and a tracert result for myspace?
Also, are you running a firewall?

i will, idk what it is but i will google it and tell you.

and yes, but ive shut it off and turned it back on and same thing

Run this in the command line:

nslookup myspace.com
and
tracert myspace.com

But if it's not your firewall, then I do suppose it may be the router. I've just never dealt with routers...ever. So I guess I can't be of much help.
