Advanced Onion Router v0.3.0.18b Updated

SYSTEM on 5 May 2013
  • 10MB (uncompressed)
  • Suggested by Vector

Advanced Onion Router is designed to bypass various barriers with a secure, anonymous Internet connection. The program attempts to circumvent firewalls, website censorship, web tracking tools, and more. Allows user of almost any application that connects to the Internet. Unlike similar clients that require a configurable proxy, AOR is able to "force" a program to use the Tor network.

Note: instructions for making Tor editions of Opera, Firefox, and Chat are included in the "Help" directory.

Category:
System Requirements: WinAll / Wine
Writes settings to: Application folder
Stealth: ? Yes
License: Various Open Source
How to extract: Download the ZIP package and extract to a folder of your choice. Launch AdvOR.exe.

Optionally, go to the "System" menu in options and check "Try to write to disk less frequently". This is ideal for increasing the life of drives running from flash memory.

What's new? 2013-04-23 Advanced Onion Router 0.3.0.18b
  • corrected: the variable IdentityAutoChange was initialized with a wrong value (thanks to anonymous for reporting this error on sf.net)

2013-04-22 Advanced Onion Router 0.3.0.18a
  • corrected: a duplicate variable name "iplist" (a pointer in dlg_bypassbl.c and an array in routerlist.c) caused a pointer to be overwritten with the first IP address that was shown in the "Select IP" system tray menu (thanks to anonymous for reporting this error on sf.net)

2013-04-20 Advanced Onion Router 0.3.0.18
  • corrected: when updating some settings from the "Private identity" page with new language strings, a program restart was needed
  • new option on the "Bypass Tor blacklists" page: "Save node statistics to exclude nodes that were restarted and have the same IP"; the list of IPs of exit nodes can be saved to a file to better estimate their longevity at a later time, for detecting new nodes with a better accuracy (ExitSeenFlags)
  • new option on the "Bypass Tor blacklists" page: "Assume blacklists remove IPs that were not seen for [time_interval]"; IPs of nodes that were no longer seen for a long period of time can be automatically removed from AdvOR-iplist.dat to allow re-using IPs with websites that use blacklists that remove old entries (ExitMaxSeen)
  • the "Hidden services" configuration page now has checkboxes near all configured hidden services to allow enabling/disabling them during AdvOR runtime (requested by anonymous on sf.net); all checkboxes are enabled by default and their state is not saved to AdvOR.ini
  • updated language strings: 3260, 3261

2013-04-05 Advanced Onion Router 0.3.0.17
  • corrected: possible buffer overflow in GetConnInfo() (thanks to anonymous for reporting this error on sf.net)
  • the procedure initmemunits() was moved from dlg_connections.c to dlg_util.c
  • new configuration option: IdentityAutoChange
  • new option on the "Private identity" page: "Show a completion MessageBox"; this option can be used to disable the message box shown when the identity is changed (IdentityFlags)
  • new option on the "Private identity" page: "Every [time_interval] change my IP|identity"; this option can be used to automatically change the exit IP or the identity at a specified time interval (IdentityFlags, IdentityAutoChange); when this option is enabled, next IP is selected according to the configured exit selection algorithm (details in the help file)
  • geoip_c.h was updated with GeoIPCountryWhois.csv released on April 2nd; there are 169256 IP ranges having 455 ranges in the fake "A1" country; 451 ranges were approximated to real countries
  • updated language strings: 3247, 3248, 3249, 3250, 3251, 3252, 3253, 3254, 3255, 3256, 3257, 3258, 3259

2013-03-20 Advanced Onion Router 0.3.0.16c
  • corrected: if server mode was disabled while AdvOR was in hibernation mode, when reconnecting to the OR network the server identity key remained set while server mode was disabled, triggering an assert in get_server_identity_key() (thanks to anonymous for reporting this problem on sf.net)

2013-03-19 Advanced Onion Router 0.3.0.16b
  • corrected: when changing server mode settings, dns_launch_correctness_checks() could had been called before configuring the name servers (thanks to anonymous for reporting this problem on sf.net)

2013-03-18 Advanced Onion Router 0.3.0.16a
  • corrected: the "Hidden Services" page was initialized with the resource identifier of another page (thanks to anonymous for reporting this problem on sf.net)
  • the AdvOR.ini sample for Firefox was updated to work with the latest "Tor Browser" package from torproject.org

BFilter v1.1.4

Andrew Lee on 12 Feb 2013
  • 1MB (uncompressed)
  • Suggested by Fluffy

BFilter is a filtering web proxy originally intended for removing banner ads only, but since then its capabilities have been greatly extended. It detects web ads "heuristically," or similar to modern anti-virus software, as opposed to using blacklists, resulting in much more consistent behavior.

Note: Configuring a portable browser to use BFilter works flawlessly as long as BFilter is running, though it is not recommended to do this with a browser on the host computer. Configuration instructions can be found here.

Category:
System Requirements: Win95 / Win98 / WinME / WinNT / Win2K / WinXP
Writes settings to: Application Folder
License: GPL
How to extract:
  1. Download the installer and extract using Universal Extractor to a folder of your choice
  2. Delete $COMMONFILES, $PLUGINSDIR and [NISI].nsi
  3. Rename $_OUTDIR to conf, then move resources and doc from conf to the main folder where bfilter.exe is located
  4. Launch bfilter.exe

to find out if it worked, just disable it, and then goto whatsmy.net and see what your ip is, and then reactivate it, and then goback to whatsmy.net and see if your ip changed, if it did, it worked.

What rot! A local proxy server is not going to change your public IP address!??!!?

Go to cracks.am if you see lots of porn movies, it isnt working.

Banshee: by definition only a REMOTE proxy server would change your IP.

Proxomitron is a local HTTP web-filtering proxy. It contains a powerful text matching engine specially designed to re-write web pages on the fly. You can use one of the built-in filtering rules, modify them or even write your own. With Proxomitron, you can stop pop-up, pop-under or pop-over ad windows, convert ads/banners into simple text links, freeze animated GIFs, stop blinking text etc.

Note: The original author of Proxomitron has passed on, and the program is no longer being developed.

Works fine with Windows Vista
Use ie7 with ie7pro.
This makes it possible to quickly enable/disable the proxyserver with Ctrl+F9

I've been using proxomitron since win95, more than 10 years now. Best ad/trash/online scam filter EVER. Best thing is, no matter what new exploit shows up.. all you need are a few lines of code to block it/modify it. This baby literally rewrites the web.

Ennovy on 2012-01-20 11:07

Tested under Windows 7, works fine. Great software and I am using it for many years now.
