Hello all, I'm with Virgin Media and I cannot seem to use any proxies. I have tried quite a few different proxies now. (not VM's official ones, as I know they shut them all down)

Their webcache thing works, but that isn't good for me because I want it to look like I have an American IP address... I don't want to pay for VPN (since im a tad skint atm) and hotspot shield is blocked by the site im trying to use it on.

Has Virgin Media blocked all proxy use? If so, what is their exguse? Since 141 on the phone isn't blocked I wouldn't of thought that proxies would be.
