Internet anonymity for Windows power users | The Register High performance access to file storage Our previous article, "Do-it-yourself Internet anonymity" was targeted towards average Windows users. It generated a startling number of e-mail requests for some advanced tactics, which I'm happy to supply. Anonymous browsing We've already discussed finding and using proxies and choosing more secure browser settings, but for those who wish to take control for themselves, it's easy to install James Marshall's free CGI Proxy if you have access to a server. CGI Proxy supports SSL, and can be configured to filter images, ads, cookies and scripts. It's a good choice for people in neurotic countries like Saudi Arabia, say, or China, where there are national firewalls. I rate this one as the best because it's free and gives admins control over all functions (including logs if you own the server), and requires no download to be accessed.

Introduction : Privicons.org Le blog de Thierry Klein Windows hack for Web-surfing privacy | The Register High performance access to file storage Those who read our article "Internet anonymity for Windows power users" know that I've been in quest of a way to assign the IE browser cache, cookies, typed URLs and history to RAM so they're never written to disk. Of course you can set your browser to delete the cache on exit, but there will be traces on the HDD; and you can block cookies or use a cookie management program, but blocking them makes surfing inconvenient, and cookie managers also leave traces on the HDD. And then there's the history, which catalogues your comings and goings for posterity. So the challenge for me has been to set the IE cache, cookies, URL history and typed URLs to a RAM drive so they're never written to disk. I've since come up with two rough hacks which accomplish this, one for Windows 95 and 98, and one for 2K and XP. I'm grateful to Walt Moorhouse, Steven T., Lutz Albers and Eric the Troll for their encouragement and suggestions Courage, beta testers
