Hi
I need some ideas since a web site drives me crazy!
This web site "couchsurfing.org" use a way to identify the login point (geolocation) of the login users. I try all my tricks but sill no way to bypass it.

Until now i try:
- Use proxy (manually change in my browser)
- Use "Hide My IP" type softwares
- A combination of the above, first "Hide My IP" type software and then a different proxy on my browser
and finally when i get crazy
- A combination of "Hide My IP" type software, then different proxy on my browser and finally a web proxy!

No luck at all, every time when i login to this site the identification script they use can recognize my real login point!

Please note that i clear any cookies (including flash cookies) every time i try to login and the geolocation function on my browser (firefox) is turned of.
With a good proxy or a combination i can fool sometimes even g00gl3. This web site though "couchsurfing.org" drives me crazy!

Any ideas how can beat them?
 
They could just be playing with your head. It might just remember your geolocation when you first sign up and thats the location it shows no matter what.

Just a thought. Some sites just look up your geolocation once and they display that.

No this is not the case, i was travelling around the world the last 8 months and every time i login they recognize my exact login position!
 
Use noscript. Chances are that they send javascipt to your browser and your browser sends them a ping.
 
It looks that this is the case...
When i use "NoScropt" and try to login i get a balloon ask me how i like to handle an "auth" file which is a "application/json" and of course there is no way (at least i don't know one..) to bypass this.
Any ideas?

UPDATE: I download and open this file "auth" and i realize that was a only redirect. Actually i was already login after click the "login" button, but... still they are able to locate my login geo point :(

Just a thought but may be its not associated directly with your IP address, may be it has stored you mac address and thats why none of the earlier methods have worked. I guess checking using a different PC might work.
