How to bypass surveys that block webpages

What you need:


- Firefox
- The ability to read
- Half a brain

1. Find a page that is blocked by a survey and open it in Firefox. I will use  http://www.yourfreehosting.net/register.jsp as an example.

2. When the survey loads, in the toolbars at the top of Firefox, click "View", then click hover over "Page Style" and select "No Style".

3. Notice how the webpage keeps bothering you and asking you "Do you want to navigate away from this page?" To get FULLY rid of it, press "Cancel" once, and then quickly press F5. The webpage will then ask you the same question, but this time, press "Ok" on the first time it asks you, and the second time it asks you, press "Cancel". (The webpage should ask you 2 times, because the first time it asks you, it's asking your permission to "Refresh", and the second time it asks you, it's asking you to turn "Basic Style" back on.)

4. To clear up the confusion that I might've caused, after you click "No Style", the webpage should ask you 3 times to "Navigate away." The first time will be right after you click "No Style", and the second two will be right after you press F5.

5. The webpage should bother you no longer. You can now go to View -> Page Style -> Basic Page Style to restore the page's original view.

6. If you want to test this out, go to http://www.yourfreehosting.net/register.jsp  and try it.
