Instead of using
www.google.com, use the actual IP address of their website:
http://72.14.207.99/
It works exactly the same as Google does for Internet searches, and most school proxies won't block that. At least the one at my high school doesn't.
You cannot do image searches, but that's not the end of the world.
EDIT: You can do a Google Image Search. It is possible to do a image search without needing to go to images.google.com/ or images.72.14.207.99/. See
this example.
Why a school might block Google is beyond me. I wouldn't suggest trying to force ways around the school proxies though, especially ones that tread on shaky legal ground.

Why not ask the school to take ChiefDelphi off of Internet blocking list? CD used to be blocked at out school, but we approached the IT department, explained all about ChiefDelphi and how it was basically educational, and then they took it off the blocking list. It's really that simple.
