Anonymous Browsing with XeroBank Browser

This is a great piece of free software to use if you want to cover your tracks when browsing the net (Previously it was known as Torpark). It's basically Firefox with connectivity to Tor network built in.

It is also a very effective way to bypass that pesky web filtering software at the office. I'm fine with blocking gaming and pron sites etc... but sadly it also blocks sites that are uncategorized by the company selling the software. So if I come across a site thats blocked but is harmless like a blog, I would fire up xB Browser and browse away like most of my co-worker :).

As for anonymity Google analytics thought I was coming from Germany when I accessed my blog using XeroBank from my home in Colombo. Not bad....
