Tor isn't a browser. It may work with your browser perhaps.


http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tor_%28anonymity_network%29

Once started you should have access to the Polipo proxy server which supports SOCKS 4 and SOCKS 5 which MUSHclient can connect to.

I can't remember how I did it exactly, but you need to point the SOCKS interface to your own PC (ie. localhost) with the port number being the Polipo proxy port (whatever that is, read the documentation).

Okay downloaded the latest version, but like SmartHideISp, its a browser, so now sure how to put it in or have Mushclient go thru it? if that makes any sense, so would like you guys expertise or knowledge on how to do that? I went into a settings, and tried to add mushclient, as something to start when it starts, not sure if that will work.

Well, I like privacy too. :)

Google "Tor" - it can be done through that, at no cost.

*I* certainly won't. I advise instead that you contact the administrator of the mush and try to work out a deal to lift your ban.

We are straying into dodgy territory here. Site bans based on an IP address can conceivably catch more people than are warranted. Just as an example, a school might use NAT to share the same IP address amongst 1000 students.

It hardly seems fair for 999 students to be banned from a website because a single one of them does something wrong.

So if you were in this situation we would be sympathetic. However it is possible that these roommates don't actually exist, and you are just asking for ways of getting around a site ban.

When writing this I am aware that a friend of mine has been operating a server which has been flooded with annoying spam messages (like, thousands of them) directing people to a "griefing" site. Now you can ban the login name, but then they make another one. The only effective thing is to ban the IP address. But now you are asking how to get around IP address bans.

Some people seem to find griefing a fun and amusing occupation. I am not one of them.

A siteban? because I have roommates, still i like keeping my ISP to myself. Until such time we have seperate stuff, we share, the nature of things, however does that mean you guys don't want to give me a plug-in designed to hide my ISP when I mush?

Okay wasn't aware of that, so is their a plug-in for mushclient that hides an ISP?

The only possible reason for wanting this is to circumvent a siteban. I agree with Nick on this one.

Because a plugin written for Firefox will not work in anything other than Firefox. And MUSHclient is not Firefox.

I went to the plug-in aspect of Mushclient, and tried to add it as a plug-in, but said it wasn't an XML file. Though iSmarthideISP software says says I'm invisible, doesn't seem to work, when I log in on Mushclient sites. or the software doesn't seem to include that aspect, so just trying to combine it so I can hide my ISP period.

... however having roomates, we all share the wireless router, so if one guy, does something like piss off a DM on a game, we could all be banned...


It's called "consequences". Maybe you should explain to your roommate why it is not in the group interest for him to behave this way.

It doesn't look like a plugin, it seems like it's a proxy you direct your network connections to. According to their knowledgebase [1] you just click "Make me invisible". Can you give us more details, like in what way it isn't working, or what steps you're taking to use this with MUSHclient?
