A cheap Shell Account can come in handy to tunnel a ssh connection to the web in a pinch.
Such shell accounts allow you to set up your browser to SOCKS5 proxy via ssh to your shell account's ip address. This tunnels all http and https AND DNS activity so urls aren't blocked!
Plenty of 'how-tos' on it--just google on ssh and socks5.
Just thought of it.
