Using Python 3.3 to access blocked webpages
Question: I'm trying to download webpages off the internet. I'm able to steal the HTML
(with URLlib), but I can't download images correctly. There's already a
question for that though. My question is, **is there any way I can use python
to bypass a firewall to access 'blocked' webpages?**

Ideally it would be using some obscure code or module, but if it's impossible,
could someone tell me a good workaround using a different method (like a
proxy)?


Answer: If you want to extract images from a HTML page, you need to parse it with
**re** module

    
    
    import re
    

using regex to extract only the _img src_ tag. You can also use a parser
alredy written. For example BeautifulSoup >

A firewall is a passive component of a perimeter defense into a computer
network that can also serve as contact points between two or more sections of
the network, ensuring a protection in terms of security of the network itself.
So you have to work directly in the network, not through the code language.
