gunnergoz Posted August 5, 2009 Share Posted August 5, 2009 I'm looking for some shareware/freeware software that will let me alter or conceal my home PC's IP. Any suggestions? Free and easy to use, works with Win Vista 64 and XP Pro is what I'm looking for. In our home business we have to peruse a lot of Russian sites and I sometimes worry about who is behind those sites and what they may be doing while we are parked there. So I figured an IP utility to hide behind would be handy. I can install and use most utilities but I'm not a programmer or really that savvy about how IP's etc really work...don't want to build the engine, just get in the car and drive off, so to speak. Any suggestions or experiences with the topic would be appreciated. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Redwolf Posted August 5, 2009 Share Posted August 5, 2009 Not to mention a proxy doesn't do anything about security problems in your browsers, attackers would get in the same way. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kugel Posted August 5, 2009 Share Posted August 5, 2009 So the little green check marks from Norton aren't good enough? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gunnergoz Posted August 5, 2009 Author Share Posted August 5, 2009 Don't use Norton. The wife doesn't look at porn sites and she's the one perusing the Russian web for business. Never heard of TOR but I'll look into it. And the browser issue is noted. Thanks to all, that was useful. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
