  • If you really want to be anonymous on the internet try a Privacy Remix version of Linux such as Tails (Based on Tor), Liberte' Linux, Privatix Live System (Never touches the HDD), UPR (Ubuntu Privacy Remix), Mandragora, Whonix.

    Even using a vpn, tor etc.. isn't entirely safe because Java & Flash and other plugins you may use can be used to identify your location with various techniques to be completely anonymous you have to be completely paranoid don't forget every time you connect to the internet your ISP logs the connections.

    it comes complete with a built in keystroke logger . . .:eek:

    Slightly out of date.
  • Use Ultrasurf, nothing to install and hides your real ip address...at least to the websites visited. Used this myself loads of times (eg to open a US Netflix account) and works very well :)

    How do you use it without downloading? I can only see the download link, no other option (on pc).

    There is a lot of misinformation in this thread!
    ..such as?
  • ^^^ Sheesh! the OP just wants to hide their ip address to a website. Do you really think the US gives a t0ss about someone in blighty using a fake ip address to open a betting account?
  • Oh no! the US govt want to prosecute me because i opened a US Netflix account via ultrasurf and view Fox Sports on my plasma telly via Overplay VPN. <hides behind sofa>:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
