USE THIS IF YOU WANT TO BE untraceable

If you do something actually "bad hat" through Tor's network, they will track you through their logs and have you put in federal up-the-ass prison.

Whatever smalltime work you're doing is fine with Tor, but if you actually need protection you're several million times safer using a vps. Most of the reasons one would need to switch IPs frequently for already ban Tor because it's an obvious proxy, so it's pointless there. The question no one's ever satisfactorily answered is "For what specific use would I bother using Tor?"

I don't bother switching my IP unless there's something I'm doing I can never be connected to. I'd trust Tor about as much as a fat kid guarding a room full of pies for that. It's not that they can't catch you, they just don't care enough to bother. In that case, what's the point of switching your IP in the first place?

I just learned that you can choose from which country to chooce ur ip i just made mine so i can only use IPs from the USA

@gouranga, how did you set your Ip location to usa ips only?

WEll I just fucked some guy who works for microsoft and he tried to do an ip trace on my emails that i sent him idiot even got the zip code from w.e ip was in my tor(im from canada) using USA ips

thisis the email he sends me back
You are stupid and idiot
You are saying you are in Canada but you are exactly on Placentia, CA 92871.
You can fuck only idiot people like yourself Mr. Fucking Armstrong

HAHA this idiot just owned himself since he is the idiot for not able to tell where my real location is

To know how to use USA ips only pm me and thank me

as to whoever says tor sucks what are u using instead then ?
and dont say servers because thats a huge hussle to do and even then
u will be stuck with same location ip's but at least u wont be untracble but still
its not better then tor just safer i guess but i think its easier to just to user an
air card registered under someone elses name then using a server for internet

I've once use tor. But its not as good as you think.
When i use tor try do some googling, google won't display any page.
Then i try to download from rapidshare. It happen either, and some sites won't opened if tor is running on your computer.
Its mean that tor user are traceable

Its better you find another tool

I use something called jap, It is open source and a little more secure in my opinion. I personally try to stay away from anything so illegal that I can be arrested for it though. There is plenty of money to be made other ways.

benol u did something wrong i google all the time never had a problem ever

Tor protects the transport of data, but doesn't solve all anonymity problems. Anonymity through tor can be break using data gathered through Java/javascript plugins, therefore is a good idea to de-activate them.

This one can be configured, I'd watched a video on metacafe explaining it which I do remmeber I would post the deatisl in the thread about securing info while using vidalia and also other digital adresser add on for mozilla's new version to make it immposible to tace and yeah also for making it to normal speed..

Might i'm wrong, but, I googling couple times after tor enabled, still can't seem any result. Either with rs download link. it won't opened

So i just leave that tool now

I hate tor, i prefer anyother than tor.

could you please tell us about the "anyother" that you prefer??

any VirtualIP's you mean??

VirtualIP, thats it. Tor is too slow and never work (well from where i am).

Try cloakfish, it can be pretty fast and is also based on tor.

well then pasdoy you are ignorant..

tor is only slow but theres a way around it u can choose the IP from the list that has the fastest connection when this is not active you are using random ones sometimes it can be slow. really slow or fast its random but u can make it desently fast all the time

tbh with ya, I got private proxy now

Ive heard from underground hacking sources Tor is traceable.

The ULTIMATE way is to have dynamic MAC address ontop of cracked Wifi Over VPN.
However, For the average/advanced user, wifi cracking/card fraud isnt needed

Looking at the Tor documentation I discovered that the Linux/Unix installation was the ostensibly hard installation route, which I'd taken. So I figured, this will be no challenge and I immediately commenced upon installing Tor using the installer thingy and clicking OK! as fast as possible. I had already had FoxyProxy installed as well to get greater familiarity with it. After all was said and done... it didn't work.

A visit to whatismyipaddress like websites told me my ip address was... the same as it always was. I had introduced the problem of using both TorButton (which the Tor Windows site recommends) and FoxyProxy. Since FoxyProxy had more subtle configuration paramaters it was a little more difficult to determine if it was actually working.

On K5 if TOR was working you'd get a nice little "You appear to using TOR to hide your IP..." message. Which, for FoxyProxy, was great. So at first it struck me that FoxyProxy was far superior to TorButton with it's global "on/off" switch (which could be done in FP was well btw, but it allowed for more granularity).

I quickly came back into the fold and realized that although the intuitive logic of FoxyProxy was superior - why use Tor when surfing all sites? - the ability to have greater confidence that Tor was actually running, which the TorButton seemed to do - was the better logic.

So I disabled the FoxyProxy plugin and kept with the Tor-recommended plain jane setup.

This is all in FireFox by the way.

So, I quickly made two bookmarks, one to the Tor verification site at harvard.edu and one to a highly ranked whatismyip site from google and used those to verify if Tor was actually running. This was in addition to the small onion icon and green (P) now in my lower right hand windows tool bar. As well as the "Tor Enabled" text in the lower right hand of Firefox.
Another intuitive way to check if Tor was running is that everything just slowed way the fuck down. And it did!

And, of course, this could be doubly-triply checked with a visit to K5 where I'd be not allowed to "post or vote" while having Tor enabled.

So things seemed to stabilize after awhile and all looked nice and then I rebooted. Reboots are always a good test of functionality on almost any system imho. Sure, it works now. But will it survive a reboot?

No. The answer was no. It gave me a privoxy (error) message when I toggled it on and let me out ok with it off. Tor was down?!? I thought. That didn't make sense. So I find the vidalia icon and pop open its configurations and it is set to restart on boot, but tor... is not!?

So I clicked "start" for Tor and things worked fine and selected "start tor on boot" as well.

Of course using Tor involves an enormous hit to your browsing speed as mentioned above. One funny side effect, and a possible explanation for the speed-hit, is if your start page is Google, then Google will show up in the language associated with your Tor gateway. Thus, I could have an additional way of knowing I was using Tor because my Google page was in German or Danish. Packets get real tired having to move all the way from Deutschlandia to across the Atlantic.

TOR SERVER

The docs say you can run a Tor server for as little as 20KB/s. I toggled "run as server" in the config and torqued it down to the absolute minimum - 20 KB/s from the much higher value it had defaulted to. Its not much but hey, it's more than they had to begin with, right? I think one reason bittorrent works is that everyone is essentially forced to run both client and server. Whatever.

While rummaging through the Firefox 'security and privacy' plugins I came across something like four different mentions of Tor in the plugins. I have yet to try them all.

hey check this post...its from:


now could someone tell me can I use Fox proxy with Vidalia???

if I can't what can I do more to make this f**kin thing faster..???

I have my own ways to make it secure but this damn thing is just so slow...can't figure out the script given as well...I mean about developing the script..
