As recent studies show, on sites referred to as social networks, more than 72 percent of the population of our country are registered. Now their popularity is also growing inexorably, albeit more slowly. And it is understandable - most people are already registered on a particular site. On average, according to scientists, users spend up to thirty minutes a day there, or even more. Waking up, they go not to wash or make coffee. The modern generation, first of all, turns on the computer or reaches for a laptop to check mail, find out news and read messages from acquaintances.
In fact, one in five people spends several hours of their free time using VKontakte in the morning, afternoon, evening, or even at night. Everyday. And, it should be noted, this is not always just free hours. Many people use their working hours for the same purpose. This forced half of the existing companies to make strict changes to their policies, banning employees from accessing the Internet, and, in particular, to social networks from work computers. Which, however, does not stop some users from craving for virtual communication and information exchange.
Why and how to sit on VK offline
It's no secret that one of the most common social networks is VKontakte. Whether you are at work or at home, you always want to drop by and check messages, watch an interesting video, or at least find out news from friends. Moreover, the amount of information contained on the resource is simply huge. If the first social networks appeared back in 2005, you can imagine how many videos, images and music, as well as interesting reading communities have accumulated to date. But not always people want to be recognized by visiting social networks. Especially if you are at school / university / at work.
There is no need to explain the reasons here. Therefore, in order not to be caught visiting the site after school hours, users are looking for various loopholes. First of all, they care: how to sit on VKontakte and be offline at the same time, quietly visit other people's pages and read their messages so that no one has time to write new ones, and then be offended that they did not answer him.
There are several ways to do this. Including specially created utilities. But as they say, "not all yogurts are equally useful." Also here, it is not recommended to download the first program that comes across. There are much safer options for sitting offline VKontakte and not infecting your computer with any misfortune. Two equivalent methods are described below to help solve this problem in different browsers.
So, how to sit on VK offline: a way for Mozilla users
First of all, we enter the command “about: config” in the address bar of our browser (just do not write quotes). Press enter and see the page that opens with a long list of various parameters. These are browser settings, here you need to look for the field with the name "filter" or "search", it is at the top. In it we type the following command: "network.http.redirection-limit" (also, of course, without quotes).
Its meaning may be different, but whatever it may be, it is better to keep this figure in mind. Better yet, write it in a notebook. After which we will change this number to zero. Now open another new tab, type in the address bar "http://vkontakte.ru/login.php". This can lead to an error message, but do not be scared. Just close it and calmly go to VKontakte, now we are invisible.
Alternative way: for Opera users
For those who access the Internet through Opera, the question of how to sit offline on VKontakte is solved even faster. We go into the settings of our browser, then go to the "Advanced" section. There you need to select the “Network” parameter, which we will change to achieve the goal. Everything is simple. Uncheck the automatic redirection, save the selection and open a new tab. In the address bar, as in the first case, it says "http://vkontakte.ru/login.php". Here we will also see an error message. But everything is going according to plan, which means that now you can safely go to the site and not be afraid to be seen.
