Hola – Access ALL of the web (free VPN) & faster browsing HTTPS Everywhere HTTPS Everywhere is produced as a collaboration between The Tor Project and the Electronic Frontier Foundation. Many sites on the web offer some limited support for encryption over HTTPS, but make it difficult to use. For instance, they may default to unencrypted HTTP, or fill encrypted pages with links that go back to the unencrypted site. The HTTPS Everywhere extension fixes these problems by using clever technology to rewrite requests to these sites to HTTPS. HTTPS Everywhere now uses the DuckDuckGo Smarter Encryption dataset, to enable even greater coverage and protection for our users. Original announcement can be found here: Further technical details on how we utilize Smarter Encryption: Feedback: If you want to send us your comments, please email extension-devs@eff.org.

HTTPS HTTPS ("HTTP over TLS",[1][2] "HTTP over SSL",[3] or "HTTP Secure"[4][5]) is a communications protocol for secure communication over a computer network, with especially wide deployment on the Internet. Technically, it is not a protocol in and of itself; rather, it is the result of simply layering the Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) on top of the SSL or TLS protocol, thus adding the security capabilities of SSL/TLS to standard HTTP communications. The main motivation for HTTPS is to provide authentication of the visited website and prevent wiretapping and man-in-the-middle attacks. In its popular deployment on the internet, HTTPS provides authentication of the website and associated web server that one is communicating with, which protects against man-in-the-middle attacks. Historically, HTTPS connections were primarily used for payment transactions on the World Wide Web, e-mail and for sensitive transactions in corporate information systems. §Overview[edit] §Usage in websites[edit]

Best Time Tracking Apps I was going to give Klok a try, and I had downloaded it, downloaded and installed Adobe Air Runtime, and was playing around with it a little. However, then I noticed how much CPU time it's using when it's sitting there doing nothing. The lowest CPU% I saw in Activity Monitor was 20%, and on many screens with NOTHING changing (even once I move the mouse off and give something else focus) it would use 70%+ CPU. In any case, I might have tried using it for a day or two if it weren't for that, but I don't want to get into it only to not be able to use it because it drains my battery.

How to Change Your Browser’s User Agent Without Installing Any Extensions All popular browsers offer build-in user agent switchers, so you can change your user agent without installing any extensions. Google Chrome and Internet Explorer both include user agent switchers in their developer tools, while Firefox offers an about:config option. Websites identify browsers by their user agents. Google Chrome Chrome 17 added a built-in user agent switcher. The user agent switcher is part of Chrome’s Developer Tools – open them by clicking the wrench, pointing to Tools, and selecting Developer tools. Click the gear icon at the bottom right corner of the Developer Tools window to open the Settings pane. From the Settings pane, enable the Override User Agent option under Network and select a user agent from the list. This setting is temporary and only persists while you have the Developer Tools window open. Internet Explorer Internet Explorer also has a user agent option in its developer tools. The developer tools will open in a separate pane at the bottom of the window.

Scan Ports - GRC ShieldsUP! Your Internet connection's IP address is uniquely associated with the following "machine name": The string of text above is known as your Internet connection's "reverse DNS." The end of the string is probably a domain name related to your ISP. This will be common to all customers of this ISP. But the beginning of the string uniquely identifies your Internet connection. The question is: Is the beginning of the string an "account ID" that is uniquely and permanently tied to you, or is it merely related to your current public IP address and thus subject to change? The concern is that any web site can easily retrieve this unique "machine name" (just as we have) whenever you visit. If the machine name shown above is only a version of the IP address, then there is less cause for concern because the name will change as, when, and if your Internet IP changes. There is no standard governing the format of these machine names, so this is not something we can automatically determine for you.
