Using an Anonymous browser


Beginners guide to using an Anonymous Proxy!

You are going to need 1 thing for this, Chromium.
Before we get ahead of ourselves let me explain what Chromium is.
In its most basic sense it is Google Chrome. The only difference is the RZL tracking has been removed. (The RZL tracking is what gets Chrome its reputation as a botnet from some internet users)
Its almost exactly the same as Chrome so if you like your privacy you could go ahead and replace chrome fully if that's your default browser.
Thats your choice though

Heres a link to download.

Extensions is the first step.
Proxy Switchy is a very nifty extension which will let you input and switch between a direct connection and whichever Proxy servers you wish

Now you have your Chromium and your extension lets distinguish between some Proxy Servers.

Alright we have Transparent, Anonymous and Elite.

Transparent.
This is a insecure, fast and lightweight.
This can easily be detected by websites using the HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR variable.
This is not the kind of Proxy Server i'm going to recommend at this point.

Anonymous
These are more secure than transparent proxies but they too aren't hard for servers to detect.
This is also not what I am recommending at this point.

Elite
This is the one we want!
Anonymous Elite servers are much more secure than the others and won't be detected by the server.
You will simply be acknowledged under a different IP, the server wont even know that you are using a proxy.


Now we have to find these Proxy servers.
We understand the types of servers so we need to get some to use with "Proxy-Switchy"
I recommend using http://proxy-list.org but you can google your own if you wish.
Okay now we can specify what proxies we want.
Port - This can be used to help avoid Firewall issues, this is not too important for beginners.
Country - This is the location of the Proxy, which is very useful. For example if you want to watch an American TV show you can choose an American proxy. The closer the server the faster the latency generally.
SSL - This is the Secure Sockets Layer. This isn't essential but it is preferrable, it'll just add you some more protection.
Type - The type is what we mentioned earlier. Select Anonymous + Elite.
Now lets filter through these proxies!

Okay so now we have our list of proxy servers.
The proxy list will be categorized 7 different sections.
Proxy-Port, this is the proxy address and port, This is what you need to input to use the proxy so take note of this.
Latency, any servers with 0.0000 latency should be avoided as they are usually offline.
Type, we want Elite as our type.
Country,  I hope you know what country means.
SSL, this was mentioned earlier.
Uptime, you should go for ones % uptime this means out of the time they have been listed theyve been up for longer.
Last work time, this too is fairly self explanitory.

Okay we are nearly there now.
First of all go into the Options page for Proxy-Switchy and create a new profile for whatever proxy you want.
Enter a name you will remember and will distinguish for this proxy (maybe location)
Now enter the IP address from the Proxy port (the first 12 characters) that I told you to take not of earlier into the HTTP Proxy box.
And enter the final 4 characters from the Proxy-port into The port box.
Check Use the same proxy server for all protocols.
Save and thats you're lot!

Now when you click on the little globe that will be next to the search bar you will be able to select the profile you created and browse anonymously!

I hope you enjoyed this guide and enjoy anonymous browsing!
