Kuda,

You can just use the google translate feature and add any url you want to the end of it.
It acts as a proxy (sort of) and gets the page for you and translates it from english to english...
 
http://translate.google.com/translate?u=
 
Then just add whatever site you want
 
http://translate.google.com/translate?u=http://www.hotmail.com/

Not the most elegant solution for browsing content, but it does go straight past webfilter.
And I am sure there are more translation engines that could be used for the same purpose.

Cheers

Zach
