IP Hiders
Are there any IP Hiders or Proxy programs that mask your IP when you use a browser, P2P program, etc? Any information? Thank you.

tor.eff.org
Works, with HTTP, FTP and may work with P2P depending on if your app supports proxies. |

Re: IP Hiders
Despite the many "Secure BitTorrent" tutorials around the web, using Tor for p2p is not recommended/suggested...
But yea, Tor is your best bet.....do NOT fork out any money for these commercial "Privacy Protection" programs... |

Re: IP Hiders
Yes, I've used tor before. It does a pretty good job. Just remember, if you're using it to keep yourself out of trouble with p2p, nothing is 100%. Be careful!

Re: IP Hiders
Yeah, I tried Tor and it said it was currently experimental. I tried and tested it, but didn't work, unless if I did something wrong. Steganos Internet Anonym works well for browsers (sometimes slows down the speed), but doesn't work with P2P programs.

Re: IP Hiders
I checked tor's webside just out of curiosity. One thing I didn't find, is a privacy policy.
Maybe I missed it, if not, please tell me where I can find it

Re: IP Hiders
I dont know how good the encryption is, but there's nothing stopping someone from running a Tor node....and running some sort of packet sniffer and sniffing your data you send.
Hell, even Will Erwin has (or had..) a tor node...set up. Then again, your ISP can/could do the same thing, since you are connected through their network. But ofc, they have a Privacy Policy. |
