How to use a proxy

Tuesday, February 27th, 2007

This is a tutorial on how to use a proxy, because we received some questions about that.

Let’s take for example the following proxy from the list of proxies provided by us earlyer this month.

62.7.244.105:80 62.7.244.103 HTTP anon 30266 ms

The first part, 62.7.244.105:80 it’s the part we’ll need. What follows means what Ip will we have after we start using the proxy, HTTP it’s the type of proxy, anon means it’s anonymous (your real IP won’t be visible) and 30266 ms it’s the ping of the proxy. I know some of the terms may not be familiar but you don’t need to understand them. Just remember, the lowest the ping is, the better the proxy is, and you should mainly use anonymous proxies.

Now let’s look at the first part, 62.7.244.105:80. The part before the colon it’s the proxy IP and the part after the colon it’s the port used by the proxy. Now depending on your browser, use the following instructions.

Press Ok, then Ok and you’re done. Check your new Ip with the Ip Info utility provided by us.

613 Fresh Valid and Live Proxies

Wednesday, February 21st, 2007

Hi there my “noob” friend. (actually this is for the more advanced users, but a short tutorial on how to use the proxies, will come very soon, just stay tuned)

Ever been concern about your privacy over the Internet? I bet you were.

I compiled a list (a few hours ago) of proxies. I’ve tested 20322 proxies found on the net.
I bet you are also tired of long lists that don’t work.
I will try every month or maybe every week to publish a list of fresh and valid proxies.

From the 20322 proxies tested only 613 valid proxies found.
The proxies are labeled with the following information:
- anon -> anonymous proxy
- elite -> elite proxy
- fakeip -> proxies that will fake your ip
- the one not labeled are transparent proxies

Also in the list you have the response time of the proxy the domain and indication if the proxy supports HTTP or HTTPS.

A little preview of the proxy list:

168.215.123.44:8080 168.215.123.44 HTTP 907 ms
201.228.15.158:3128 201.228.15.158 HTTP 4516 ms
212.138.64.150:80 212.138.64.180 HTTP 1219 ms

You can download the proxy list from here: 21 feb 2007 613 fresh valid and live proxies.

How to make Google Crazy

Monday, February 5th, 2007

I will show you how to make google.com make crazy. With a simple javascript code you’ll make the logo fly on the page. This works on many other sites though. It’s fun to try it on pages with lots of images, like google images search, flickr.com or even news.bbc.co.uk.
How does it work ?
You just go to the desired homepagee copy/paste the following code in the navigation bar of your browser and hit ‘Enter’. That’s all :)

Here’s a video to show the power of this javascript:


How To Make Google Go Crazy - video powered by Metacafe

The javascript code is:

javascript:R=0; x1=.1; y1=.05; x2=.25; y2=.24; x3=1.6; y3=.24; x4=300; y4=200; x5=300; y5=200; DI=document.images; DIL=DI.length; function A(){for(i=0; i-DIL; i++){DIS=DI[ i ].style; DIS.position=’absolute’; DIS.left=Math.sin(R*x1+i*x2+x3)*x4+x5; DIS.top=Math.cos(R*y1+i*y2+y3)*y4+y5}R++}setInterval(’A()’,5); void(0);
