How do I unblock blocked sites on Google?

My girlfriend uses the internet. She doesn't have much computer knowledge so she'll click on a link and then, later on, she'll say, "Hey, what is this website?" I don't really know the best way to explain this, but it's basically all the links that show up when you do a search on Google, and these are the links that are blocked. So if I go to a website and it has a "Block site" link, that means it's blocked on Google.

When my girlfriend tries to access blocked websites, she gets a message that says: "To see this site, you need to unblock it." I want to teach her how to unblock these websites, but I don't really know what I should tell her. If she just clicks the "Block site" link and unblocks the website, then it's not going to work. If she unblocks the website, then how do I know that she didn't make a mistake when she clicked on the "Block site" link?

Click "OK". Wait a few seconds for the window to open. Now click the address bar (the little area that says "") and type in www.blockedsite.com and press enter.

Click "OK" to close the window, and wait for the page to load. You should see a message in the box that says "This site can't be displayed because it appears to be blocked." Click "OK" and follow the instructions.

How do I unblock a proxy server?

You can't "unblock" a proxy server. You have to configure your software to use the proxy server. This may involve using the proxy server's IP address instead of the DNS address you use normally. For example, if you normally use your ISP's DNS servers, you have to instead use the proxy's IP address. If you're using a proxy server from a service, such as Proxifier, you can also configure your software to use the proxy server instead of the ISP's servers.

Proxy servers are servers that allow network traffic to be sent through their servers. Proxies are commonly used to make websites faster bypassing content filtering in schools or workplaces.
