getting around the Turkish internet censor (help please?)

[MCFCinUSA]

When I'm in Turkey their internet filters will often block my browser from running certain websites - like YouTube & BetFair.

Does anyone know of a proven and reliable proxy or other way of getting around their sensors please?

I'll be over there tonight, and would like unfettered internet access for the duration of my time over there - and if anyone can help me with a simple fix I'd be very grateful.

Actually, I know someone who may be able to help:

How spooky, I'm in Turkey right now ! Let me know please. I'd love to be able to get on TVCatchup

sorry Jolly, I just left...

apparently you can defeat the Turkish censors by changing your DNS to make it look like you're Google (so my Turkish friend showed me... but he has three computers, one of which is set-up like this); I guess if you're there permanently then this is necessary.

Sorry guys, I missed this thread before.

Try this:

thx Damo - and is there any way you know of to make things look like you're in the UK too?

(except without going to the trouble of paying for a proxy server set-up?)
