your browser to use the US proxy:

Since accessing Wikipedia only isn't too nice, for future outages a pac
file can be used:
function FindProxyForURL(url, host)
{
//Not using shExpMatch to avoid kb274204
var regex =
/\.wik(i((m|p)edia|books|quote|news|source|versity)|tionary)\.org/;
if(regexpr.test(host))
return "PROXY rr.pmtpa.wikimedia.org:80";
return "DIRECT";
