I'm already behind a proxy for internet access.
We have certain sites blocked on this network.
If I tell my browser to use a different proxy it doesn't work. I think this is because it needs to go through the existing proxy to get to the internet.
Is there a way I can use another proxy when I'm already behind one? How do I do that?
Will the sites I try to access still be blocked if the primary proxy has the policy in place?

You can usually specify a parent proxy through which to route traffic from your local proxy (privoxy, squid, polipo, etc). However, if that parent proxy blocks certain websites, they'll still be blocked in your two-proxy setup.
