If you download the blacklists for squidguard (www.squidguard.org) there
is a category of "proxies". All of these are websites that offer some
form of proxy/anonomizer service for browsers. All you do is point to
one of those and surf away.

That's why they are in squidguard blacklists.

Alternative:

use the http/java server in vnc to use a browser to access a remote
machine connection.
