Having Trouble with Securly Filter Login? Get Solutions Now!

Okay, so, here’s the deal with this “Securly Filter Login” thing I messed with today. It all started this morning when I tried to get on a few websites for some, you know, regular browsing. But bam! I got blocked. Turns out, my network is using this Securly thing to filter out stuff.

At first, I was like, “What the heck is this?” I did a bit of digging around. Apparently, Securly is one of those web filtering tools that schools and companies use to keep people from going to certain sites. Makes sense, I guess, but it’s still a pain when you’re trying to get stuff done.

So, I thought, “Alright, let’s try to log in and see if I can tweak the settings or something.” I found the login page easily enough. I found a login portal. I put in my usual credentials, hoping it would be that simple. Nope. Didn’t work. It is not associated with my current network account at all.

Troubleshooting this headache

Next step, I tried to see if there was a way to bypass it. I mean, there’s always a workaround, right? I messed around with some browser settings, cleared my cache, and cookies. I thought maybe it was just a glitch or something. Still nothing. This thing is persistent.

• Tried different browsers: First, I switched from Chrome to Edge, thinking maybe it was a browser-specific issue. No luck.
• Checked for updates: Then I made sure my browsers were up-to-date. Maybe there was a new version that handled this filter differently. Still no dice.
• Looked for common issues: I even went through some forums and help pages to see if anyone else had similar problems. Found a bunch of people complaining about it, but no real solutions.

Finally, I decided to just contact our IT guy. I figured, he’s the one who set this up, so he should know how to deal with it. After a bit of back and forth, he told me what to do to properly log in. I got the right credentials, logged in. The instructions he gave me were specific for our setup, so they might not work for everyone.

So, that’s my little adventure with Securly Filter Login. It’s a robust system, I’ll give it that. It is not a “search hijacker” or “malware”. But if you’re stuck behind one and need to get in, reaching out to your IT department is probably your best bet. And I did it! I managed to get it done!
