How to hide ip: Censorship In Run-up To 1 October Anniversary


Censorship In Run-up To 1 October Anniversary

Posted: 30 Sep 2009 03:20 AM PDT

Reporters Without Borders said yesterday that Internet control agencies have redoubled efforts to prevent Internet users based in China, including foreign residents, from using censorship circumvention software such as Freegate and virtual private networks (VPN). This is related to the 60th anniversary of the proclamation of the People's Republic of China on 1 October.

IP Blocking for Freegate and VPNs

It seems that tens of thousands of IP addresses suspected by the authorities of using Freegate and VPNs, especially those that are free, have been blocked in the past few days.

"The Electronic Great Wall has never been as consolidated as it is now, on the eve of the 1 October anniversary, proving that the Chinese government is not so sure of its record," Reporters Without Borders said.The new restrictions are making it even more difficult to access social-networking websites such Facebook and Twitter, or YouTube's video-sharing sites, which have been blocked since July.

DNS spoofing

Also, another blocking system was reported from China. Visits to certain websitess were being redirected to different IPs. Analysis shows that this is an unprecedented large-scale domain name hi-jacking in China achieved through DNS record spoofing. This effort is the result of an escalated level of Internet censorship in China.

When a user visit a website with a domain name, by default, the user’s ISP’s DNS server will be queried first to find out the IP of that site. By modifying the DNS record so that a user will never reach the correct website is called DNS spoofing.

You can read more about DNS Spoofing in China on DynaWeb.

Update 1: HideIpVPN.com has published today a solution for DNS spoofing problem for those that use their VPN service.

Update 2: Freegate Update Released as National Day Approaches

How to hide ip: 11 Best TOR-Based Tools For Hiding Your IP Address


11 Best TOR-Based Tools For Hiding Your IP Address

Posted: 28 Sep 2009 04:49 AM PDT

Tor (The Onion Router) is one of the most popular hide IP tool used on the internet due to its simplicity and efficiency. To be more precise, we have to say that Tor is not actually a tool, is more a network of computers that working together achieve anonymity for its users. [Tor Project]

How Tor Works

A user of the Tor network runs a proxy server on his computer. Internet-facing software can then access Tor through a SOCKS interface. Once inside a Tor network, the traffic is sent from router to router, the Tor software periodically negotiating a virtual circuit through the Tor network, ultimately reaching an exit node at which point the cleartext packet is forwarded on to its original destination.

Viewed from the destination, the traffic appears to originate at the Tor exit node The Onion Router (Tor) is a free software implementation of second-generation onion routing – a system which claims to enable its users to communicate anonymously on the Internet. [Via Wikipedia]

Tor-Based Tools

To connect to Tor network easily you need to use an application that performs most of the configuration steps. Here are the best tools that use Tor network to hide your IP address and achive online anonymity:

1. Vidalia Tor Bundle

Vidalia is a cross-platform controller GUI for the Tor software. Vidalia runs on Windows, Mac OS X, and Linux or other Unix variants using the X11 window system.

4. Xero Bank Browser

6. Incognito

7. Tor Browser Bundle

The Tor Browser Bundle lets you use Tor on Windows without needing to install any software. It can run off a USB flash drive, comes with a pre-configured web browser and is self contained. The Tor IM Browser Bundle additionally allows instant messaging and chat over Tor. If you would prefer to use your existing web browser, install Tor permanently.

8. TorButton

9. FoxTor

FoxTorYou may not realize this but every place youFoxTor is a Firefox add-on that provides an easy and convenient way to browse the web using the anonymous and encrypted TOR network. This offers greater privacy compared to regular proxy services or extensions.

11. Torcap

Torcap is a tool that allows any network application to connect through Tor, even if the overlying application doesn’t support SOCKS. Torcap works by injecting a DLL into every process running under the current user. This DLL then hooks Winsock API to intercept DNS lookups and TCP/IP connections.
