I'm trying to go on to http://www.guitarshredshow.com, but when I try, I receive the typical "operation timed out" error, BUT the site background, title, and little URL-window-icon show up. this is probably because the site's an Angelfire domain and i can never get on those, i think because i live in China and either China has banned, or has been banned by Angelfire. so anyway, is there any way i can access this site? i've tried using proxify but that didn't work. any help will be much appreciated, thanks!

sorry, would have edited but i took too long - i've confirmed that angelfire is indeed banned by china's great firewall, so now my question is if there's any way to access the site through the national firewall? OR if some kind, knowledgeable soul would mind saving the flash app on the website and mailing it to me at superdigg-at-gmail.com?

Many users bypass the Great Firewall of China by using foreign universities as proxies.

You could also try UltraSurf and FreeGate from Clarify The Truth In China
www.clarifythetruthinchina.com/index.php?article_file=chiblockade.html

----------------------
EDIT: Let me know if you can't access the site and I'll email the programs to you.

Descriptions from the download sites...
1. Ultrasurf is very effective in breaking the Internet blockade in Mainland China and clarifying the truth to the people there. Hundreds of millions of people have visited websites outside China through Ultrasurf. Most of the people come from the big cities like Beijing, where the evil is most concentrated. Ultrasurf has never been blocked and is getting stronger and stronger.

2. FreeGate was designed to help Chinese access information on the Internet that their government forbids them from viewing. Launch FreeGate and a certification pop-up window will immediately appear. Click "Yes" and the browser will open up, and an interface similar to that of Yahoo! News will appear. Now click on the news story link you're interested in and just like that - you'll have access to world-wide news!

How is this possible for people in China to do all of this without the Chinese government being aware of it? Because they're retrieving IPs through DynaWeb's proxy network… not through their own local government controlled ISP!

Is FreeGate 5.4 difficult to use? Hardly! We can assure you this: if you can turn on a TV set, you can use this software - it's that easy! Just tell people to try it out and they're sure to be pleased!
