That\u2019s why programming collective <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.hacktivismo.com\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Hacktivismo<\/a> have released <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/torpark.nfshost.com\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Torpark<\/a> \u2013 a new browser that uses its own network of net routers to allow users to surf without leaving a trace. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span lang=\"EN-GB\">Even more impressive, Torpack can be stored on any USB pendrive or external storage device meaning you can surf in peace from any PC, anytime. The browser works by encrypting traffic between a computer and the Tor routers owned by the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.eff.org\">Electronic Frontier Foundation.<\/a> It also regularly changes the user\u2019s IP address to leave a \u201csmokescreen\u201d for any potential intruders. The makers admit however that data exchanged between websites that do not use encryption to secure login sessions and the Tor network remain vulnerable. They proudly claim however that unlike other similar applications such as <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/netconceal-anonymizer.en.softonic.com\/ie\/46398\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Anonymizer<\/a> and <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/downloads.zdnet.co.uk\/0,39025604,39092480s,00.htm\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">SecretSurfer<\/a>, Torpark is 100% clean and free of spyware\/adware. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span lang=\"EN-GB\">Firefox users have be<\/span><span lang=\"EN-GB\"><span lang=\"EN-GB\">en able to access the Tor network via a plugin for sometime now but this is the first time the browser has been available for download. The new package also features a special tab that allows users to switch between anonymous and normal surfing. The two major drawbacks are that in exchange for anonymity, surfing is somewhat slower and some site<\/span><span lang=\"EN-GB\">s act badly thinking you are constantly logging-in and out again like some kind of paranoid lunatic. That said, if you\u2019ve been particularly plagued by credit card fraud or security issues, this could be the answer you\u2019ve been looking for.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It seems you can\u2019t go anywhere on the internet without being followed \u2013 just ask Gary Glitter.
