Review: The Tor Browser Bundle

Do you require anonymous browsing from time to time? How do you accomplish the task?

Need to test your firewall, Apache permissions or general website as an "outsider".. go through Tor.

My personal preference is to have Tor setup as a local socks proxy so any network program can be run through it. For network programs that do not support Socks proxies, Tsocks proxy your non-Socks apps (on Linux based platforms, not sure about others).

I work in a library where we need to be able to test our links (especially for databases) both internally and externally. TOR gives me an external IP address outside of the college's range so that I can see what our patrons see from at home or work. Very handy for that.

I uploaded an article about Tor describing the level of anonymity you can expect using that service:

Do you techs recommend Tor? Is it safe? What are the draw back?
Apprecaite any help.

In my college we have to use some fixed proxy to connect to internet
So after using tor I am not able to connect it to internet so is it normal or there is some way to still access the internet???
