Hide your IP (proxy)
To all -
As security is of the utmost in this environment (especially those of us avid ASPD'ers), I suggest you subscribe to proxify.com's premium service. Your IP address will be somewhere else on the planet...not your office, your home or any place else you're using to be a part of this great community.
Post and review with reckless abandon!!

I saw you can type a web address in on the main page and it uses a proxy. Can this be used on my work computer and IT won't see my activity? If so, this opens a world of opportunity....

Depending on how it's set up, your IT department may not be able to see what you're doing. However, they will be able to see you're doing something and taking steps to hide your activities from them. It's not difficult at all for your IT department to see that you're using a proxy service, and either block it, or detect it and flag you for "disciplinary action."
There are various degrees of stealthiness in how you can use a proxy, and various degrees to which the IT department can spend detecting such things. If they're using some sort of commercial internet security service or tools, it's likely such things will be detected and your activity will be lumped in with spammers, hackers, kiddie pornographers, etc. in their "bad activity" list.
By the way, how does eccie feel about people using anonymizers to access eccie.net? ASPD outright banned it because it was used so often by the forces of darkness.

Huh? Of course your IT department can see what you're doing. They won't have the IP address of the site you are contacting, but they'll still have all of the stuff you send and receive. Trust me, anyone in your it department who knows what he/she is doing can read what goes back and forth and it doesn't take a genius to read www.eccie.net from the raw html and figure out what site you are visiting. Give me 2 ninutes reading the output from tcpdump on your local network and you'll be hosed.

AGREED!!!!! Best not to use a work computer. They will know what you are doing.

There are anonymizer services that will use encryption and your IT department and anyone else along the internet will not be able to tell which web page you're going to or what you're viewing. They do varying degrees of concealing what you're viewing. Some hide the content, but they can still see you're going to www.eccie.net. Some hide both the content and "eccie.net."
However, your IT department can tell you're using an anonymizer service. This can get you fired just as easily as going to an actually bad web site. They may assume that covering your tracks is proof you're doing something bad. Even if your IT department isn't that smart, they may have some sort of commercial security software that tells them you're doing something bad.
Don't do it at work on their computers or their network.

At one time, my employer was using a "manged security client" on our work computers, that could have been configured (as this was supported by the software - but thankfully, not turned on...) to take a screen shot of whatever was on your screen periodically, and store it in a central location. There's no anonymizer in the world that can hide you from that.

When I am in the office...I do just that. But, with all the LE activities and infiltration of ASPD....I've decided to keep me quite anonymous. I plan on being much more active here vs the ol' ASPD.

Amazes me that someone who is not self employed would even consider doing it on their employers network. On your own smart phone however....

1. NEVER do it from work unless you own the company. If your IT Dept knows anything you are toast no matter what you do
2. Why Pay? http://www.torproject.org/index.html
3. RDP is good if you have a SO and more than one computer. Setup a "file" server with no monitor/keyboard... use a laptop to connect to the server. No Local traces of anything (Pick a different password than normal)
