Do what I do and set up your own personal server that runs 24/7 at home, and route through it via either a squid proxy, ipsec, vpn, etc. Then just configure yourself a dyndns name. I can always log in to my server by connecting to 'cav.kicks-ass.net' instead of ever having to worry about the IP address. No matter what network I happen to roam into, I can access anything through my server, whether the network I am on blocks or censors the site or not. Plus I am using ipsec, so they can't monitor what I am doing because its all encrypted.

BTW, how do you install ipsec under Windows?

I cannot find how to under Google. :(

I prey, not pray.
Use putty. Its not exactly ipsec, but it is just as secure and when configured right works exactly the same.

How do you configure Putty for a HTTP server?

Will it work for HTTP sites including PHP?

What you are going to have to do is set up a proxy server, then configure your browser to use it. (if your nix server runs gentoo, just emerge squid)

Basicaly that makes your http work like this:

browser > putty > remote proxy > net
