Psiphon

 Psiphon 是一个很特别的软件, 被音译为白凤或赛风, 简单讲,  赛风服务器是支持https协议的服务器,用户在工作站上并不需要安装赛风软件， 你可以通过https://server_ip, 登录赛风服务器, 通过这个服务节点, 可以访问任何网站. 

所以网^监^很难截获你的信息. 当然你最好也不要通过这个赛风服务器访问paypal等网站, 因为对于到了赛风服务器后, 你的信息都是以明文方式存在的.  当然, 如果是你自己建立的服务节点的话, 就不是问题了.


sesawe.net可能是一个用户很多赛风user的网站,你可以向它申请一个user. 需要Psiphon2注册邀请的朋友，请向english@sesawe.net发送电子邮件请求，说明 "can I have psiphon2 access" 并告诉您所在的国家。也可以使用Twitter Direct Messages或登陆Psiphon网站直接向Psiphon索取使用邀请。

Use MicroEmulator to surf without any bans

手机上使用Opera mini用户很庆幸。对于所有浏览的内容都会通过Opera Turbo服务器进行压缩处理。而如果使用的是国际版，内置的就是国外的中转服务器。也就是说，opera mini国际版内置穿墙术。

那么，是否可以把opera mini移植到桌面来使用，让其成为一个桌面浏览器，并拥有较好的使用体验呢？当然可以。我们知道，Opera Mini是基于J2ME开发的。所以我们可以用java模拟器MicroEmulator来运行它。参考

http://lawand.wordpress.com/2009/01/12/opera-mini-for-windows/

http://www.chinagfw.org/2009/09/opera-mini.html

一.  环境搭建

1)      下载MicroEmulator

(http://microemu.org/, 下载地址http://sourceforge.net/projects/microemulator/files ), 这是一个Java版的手机模拟器, 下载后解压该文件.

2)      下载Mini  Opera

(http://www.operamini.com/download/pc/generic/generic_advanced_midp_2/ ), 包含两个文件,一个是Jad文件, 另一个是Jar文件, MicroEmulator需要通过Jad, 来引导打开Jar文件的.  最好是将Mini Opera的Jad和jar文件保存到模拟器的apps目录下.  5.0和4.2版本都行.

3)      运行MicroEmulator

Double click on "microemulator.jar" to run it. If it doesn't start then you need to type "java -jar microemulator.jar" in a console.

二.  设置MicroEmulator

1)      MicroEmulator模拟器窗口设置,

默认的窗口是一个很小的手机界面, 当然不适合在PC上使用, 尤其是浏览网页. 可以选择其他的显示设备, 在MicroEmulator菜单Options/Select Device中, 增加新的设备, 设备文件可用MicroEmulator\devices\microemu-device-resizable.jar. 这样MicroEmulator模拟器窗口就可以随意设置了.

2)      网络设置

如果在公司里, 必须通过代理服务器才能外网, 那么你还需要为MicroEmulator设置一下这个代理才行.  具体是在文件: C:\documents and settings\%UserName%\.microemulator\config2.xml

增加下面几个属性

                <system-properties>

                                …

                                <system-property VALUE="true" NAME="avetana.forceNativeLibrary"/>

                                <system-property VALUE="proxy.yourserver.com" NAME="http.proxyHost"/>

                                <system-property VALUE="6050" NAME="http.proxyPort"/>

                                …

        <system-property VALUE="CLDC-1.0" NAME="microedition.configuration"/>

                </system-properties>

参见http://www.microemu.org/faq.html

3)      MicroEmulator和PC的互操作, 参考http://lawand.wordpress.com/2009/01/12/opera-mini-for-windows/

默认情况下, MicroEmulator是不能访问PC的文件系统的, 但通过配置它是可以访问所在PC的文件, 配置文件是C:\documents and settings\%UserName%\.microemulator\config2.xml, 在根节点下增加下面的节点.

<extensions>

<extension>

<className>org.microemu.cldc.file.FileSystem</className>

<properties>

<property VALUE="C:\" NAME="fsRoot"/>

</properties>

</extension>

</extensions>

三.  MicroEmulator和Mini Opera的快捷键

F1—左功能键--- Abort

F2—右功能键--OK

数字键8-向下, 2-向上, 4-向左, 5-向右

Mini Opera 的快捷键

在加载mini opera后, 点击左下角menu, menu随之变成了select，如图所示，再点击help，如图所示，再点击shortcuts，活得快捷键一览表，

目前存在的问题：

1.  模拟器不支持中文输入。这就意味着搜索的时候只能用英文关键词了。
2.  模拟器里的opera mini地址栏，你只能手动输入地址，无法通过别的地方粘贴过来。

3. Opera mini中，Google in English的网址是：yidong.google.com

Excellent MicroEmulator and Opera-Mini tutorial

opera拥有自己的opera turbo服务器, 目前在美国和中国都设有turbo 服务器. 通过opera mini浏览网页, 都在返回给浏览器之前, 都经过了服务端压缩, 所以防火墙无法block任何内容.

下面是一个非常棒的使用MicroEmulator和opera mini4的教程, 包括 如何用opera mini 4将网页保存到Windows操作系统中.
http://lawand.wordpress.com/2009/01/12/opera-mini-for-windows/

在MicroEmulator上, F1和F2两个键有特别的用处.
F1 for "Abort", F2 for "OK"

翻墙之web代理网站

https://www.sneakme.net/ (支持blogspot登录)
https://tor-proxy.net (其网站采用tor, jap以及自有的express作为代理服务器)
https://dtunnel.com/ (支持MSN等)


https://proxy.org/ssl_proxies.shtml 这里列出了一些支持ssl的web代理服务器

webmaster tool and free host

在线网络命令网站, 该网站提供很多命令服务
http://network-tools.com/default.asp
1. 提供Ping服务
2, 通过Look up和DNS Records还可以知道这个域名host在哪个域名服务上
3. 通过trace甚至可以知道web server是什么?


检查你网站所在的IP, 同时还有哪些网站
http://www.myipneighbors.com/
http://www.yougetsignal.com/tools/web-sites-on-web-server/


免费的Web host服务商
1. Freehostia.com-国外免费PHP空间（带WordPress演示）
http://lukexzt.blogspot.com/2009/03/freehostiacom-php.html

另外, Freehostia网站允许你修改IP, 这样在你的网站被墙了之后, 你可以切换到另一个没有被block的IP. 方法是:
进入Free hostia Control Panel, 选择菜单Site management--Custom DNS Record, 点击reset按钮就可以了.

2. 000webhost.com-国外免费PHP空间(带WordPress演示)
http://lukexzt.blogspot.com/2009/01/000webhostcom-phpwordpress.html

3. awardspace.com

Change IP of your site hosted by web host provider

Q1. 怎样确定你的网站被墙了?
A1, 如果你的网站不能正常通过浏览器访问, 最可能的情况就是被墙了. 另外你可能用多种方式确认一下是否真的被墙. 方法1, 你可以开启免费(free)-门(gate)等代理, 然后用浏览器访问. 方法2, 使用google的translate, 来访问你的网站. 方法3, 使用tracert your_web_domain 命令, 看看是在哪个hop丢的.

Q2. 怎样修改你的网站IP?
A2, 不同的host provider有不同的服务方式, 多数服务商不容许你自己修改IP, 但Dreamhost和Freehostia例外. 所以应该优先选择这两个服务商.
Dreamhost的服务器采用的是集群式架构，绑定域名的IP会随机的分配（譬如我们在某一时刻添加了一个绑定，过几个小时，这个IP所绑定的域名已经满了，系统就会为域名绑定分配下一个IP），所以如果遇到域名的 IP被封，我们可以取消这个域名的绑定，然后再重新绑定这个域名。这样就不怕IP会被封的问题了。
freehostia.com该空间的特点, 用户在后台可以自己换IP(方法：后台－空间管理－Custom Dns记录－重设(Reset)，点一下随机换一个)

Q3. 怎样确认你的新IP没有被block?
A3. 通常, 在你修改了网站IP之后, 因为需要更新DNS, 所以你无法立即通过域名访问到你的网站. 但如果你能tracert(或ping)通你的网站, 则可以断定这个新IP是没有被block的.

How to access the blocked web by using google translate

在网上看到这个方法真的很新颖, 利用google的translate服务.

方法就是：google translate。

1、打开google translate： http://translate.google.cn/translate_t

2、选择“翻译网站”功能，设备翻译顺序为从“中文”到“英文”。否则，倒过来的话，强行把英文翻译成中文的话，你就傻冒了。

3、输入你要访问的网站： http://www.abcdef.com/login.html ，哈哈，登陆吧。

Install Joomla on local windows

Absolute Beginners Guide http://docs.joomla.org/Beginners#Absolute_Beginners_Guide_to_Joomla.21

Joomla是一个非常流行的CMS系统, (http://www.joomla.org/)
下面是在windows机器上的安装步骤
1. 下载Download Joomla! 1.5.x zip package
2. 因为Joomla需要PHP, MySQL, Apache, 如果你的操作系统是Linux, 下载LAMP, 如果你的操作系统是Windows, 下载WAMP(http://www.wampserver.com), 我下载的是WAMP.
3. 安装WAMP, 安装过程非常简单, 安装目录不要带空格. 我选择的安装目录是D:\wamp\
4. 在Windows的services中, 确认wampapache服务是否启动(注意apache的默认端口是80, 如果该端口和IIS的端口冲突, 可以修改D:\wamp\bin\apache\Apache2.2.11\conf\httpd.conf中的80换成8080)
5. 在Windows的services中, 确认wampmysqld服务是否启动, 注意mysql数据库的root用户, 默认密码是空.
6. 用浏览器浏览http://localhost:8080/, 检查WAMP可以正常启动.
7. 因为Joomla的主页名与WAMP主页名称都是index.php. 所以在安装Joomla之前, 将D:\wamp\www\index.php改名WAMPIndex.php.
8. 解压Joomla的zip包到D:\wamp\www目录之下.
9. 用浏览器浏览http://localhost:8080/, 进入Joomla的Web安装向导. 向导共有7步, 有一步是配置Mysql数据库的, 填写好MySQL的host, 以及mysql的用户(你可以使用mysql的root用户, 其密码默认为空), 数据库可以选用MySQL自带的test数据库.
10. 在Web安装向导的最后一步是, 输入Joomla的admin密码.
11. 最后, 需要将D:\wamp\www\installation删除
12 用浏览器浏览http://localhost:8080/, 就可以进入你的Joomla网站了.

Best Free Anonymous Surfing Service

copied from
http://www.techsupportalert.com/best-free-anonymous-surfing-service.htm

There are many reasons people have for wanting to surf anonymously, ranging from simple paranoia in terms of protecting personal data, to hiding browsing activities from other users of a computer including parents, spouses, or even other organizations. Whatever your reasons for wanting to use anonymous browsing services, or criticizing others for wanting to use them, I will not debate the political, legal, moral, ethical and other reasons, but simply review the available technology. Be aware that most corporate networks will block the use of anonymous surfing activities at the corporate firewall. Corporate networks and internet links are after all the property of your employer and should never be misused in violation of corporate acceptable use policies, so don’t expect any help here in finding ways to circumvent firewall blocking.

The most obvious anonymous browsing application for most people is in internet cafes, on public terminals, using wireless or even wired access points away from home, or in fact, on any PC including your own, where you don't want to leave traces of your private surfing activities. Some other browsing activity cleaners exist that clear the cache, cookies, history and other traces, some are even available as a standard in most browsers, but anonymous browsing goes a step further. What attracts me is not so much the privacy aspect, but rather the security potential, because all of the anonymizing browser proxy based services create a secure encrypted connection between the PC you are using and the first anonymizing proxy server. This allows you to safely transmit information without little risk of local interception, making it ideal for surfing on open Wi-Fi networks, or in hotels while travelling.

Previously, secure surfing on such networks required the use of private VPN networks, generally an option only available to corporate employees, those with the available money to pay for it and the technically savvy. Now, using any of the Tor or JAP based browsers, any surfer can reap the same sort of security benefits for their browsing. Whatever the reasons anyone may have for using anonymizing browsing, commercial services that offer anonymity are doing well, and a number of both free and subscription based browsing applications and services have become available.

Two dominant services exist which provide the foundation for free, secure anonymous browsing. The JAP network was good enough that the German Police insisted in 2004, that a backdoor be put into the product to allow interception of child pornographers. This was done, but subsequently removed as a result of court action by the JAP development team. The alternative is Tor (The Onion Ring), which is a system that not only allows anonymous browsing but also anonymous P2P, email, IM, and IRC chat. Given the US Navy origin of Tor, the suspicion inevitably arises that this system may have a permanent backdoor, however, the source code is now publicly available so that suspicion can perhaps be set aside. More worrying was a raid by German police in September 2006 involving the seizure of some Tor servers in that country. Again, pedophiles were the supposed target, but who really knows.

OperaTor is my clear first choice, a portable version of Opera with an included and well integrated Tor engine that uses the free Tor network. OperaTor is small and relatively fast, using just 6Mb of memory for it’s Tor engine, 2Mb for the Polipo caching proxy, 3Mb for the OperaTor loader and 18Mb for Opera. In my experience, OperaTor is by far the fastest browser, even with multiple proxies on the Tor network so that the browsing trail is frequently changing for greater security. Some people don't like the fact that OperaTor is not released with source code available (at least not that we have yet located) which may influence the choice in whether to use it or not. I believe that unless a user is proficient in programming, or at least reading the development language of any particular application, this becomes rather irrelevant, unless some amount of comfort or security might be perceived in knowing that source is available and others might be checking it even if the user of the application can not read it personally. Even closed source projects that become popular generally receive enough user and peer scrutiny that most problems would be quickly exposed.

JonDo (previously known as JAP) is my second choice and is in some ways a more flexible option, in that it is simply a Java application that performs the role of a local (PC based) proxy server that redirects browser requests via the JonDo (formerly JAP) network. This allows the user to configure their choice of any browser rather than requiring a change to Opera. Unfortunately, being Java based means that the application becomes somewhat bloated, requiring 54Mb of memory just for the Java JonDo application, as well as another few Mb for the JAP engine, and then whatever additional is required for the web browser of choice. JonDo does have quite a nice GUI display which shows the strength of the anonymity based on the number of anonymizing proxy servers, and takes care of managing the random proxy changes for greater anonymity. A commercial service known as JonDonym has been introduced which uses dedicated servers to provide higher speeds, higher levels of availability and more security along with support for chat, ftp and ssh in addition to web browsing. Another offering from the commercial JonDonym group is JonDoFox, a customized version of Firefox with JonDo code embedded along with other anonymizing optimizations. Unfortunately, JonDo not being a network like Tor is prone to some limitations in terms of the numbers of free servers, and some subsequent downtimes may be more likely with the smaller server base.

Vidalia is my third choice, a close match to JonDo in that it is quite a bit lighter in memory use and generally feels faster, but may not have the same level of anonymizing as JonDo. Vidalia is another integrated package using a combination of Privoxy and a Tor engine to connect to the Tor network, but it offers many new features. As with JonDo, Vidalia behaves as a local proxy for use by any browser, but it also provides configurations allowing it to run either as a simple standalone process or as a Windows service (for security and performance reasons, among others). Vidalia allows the user to participate in the anonymizing process by becoming a Tor Relay to help censored users in a similar way to becoming a BitTorrent relay, and a live realtime facility is available showing a map of the earth with lines representing connections to the Tor server participants. Vidalia uses 24 - 32Mb of memory, with an additional 4Mb used for Privoxy and another 16.5Mb for the Tor engine. One initially confusing aspect of Vidalia is that it provides a configuration access through port 9051, but it is not immediately obvious that Privoxy is listening on port 8118. Browsers using the Vidalia bundle must be configured to use the Privoxy port 8118 as the proxy server, not port 9051. Like JonDo, the Vidalia/Privoxy combination constantly changes proxy servers to mask the trail to provide greater anonymity.

Whatever your preference, both JAP and Tor networks offer a level of secrecy that is better than many commercial systems, though they are not watertight. Expect your surfing to slow down, in some case substantially, because you'll be relayed through a chain of servers, all heavily impacted by BitTorrent users seeking to hide from the RIAA. Note: the latest V5 release of JAP now allows Tor users to use JAP as a software access point to the Tor network.

The XeroBank Browser (previously known as TorPark) provides a new customized version of the Firefox browser configured to work with the free Tor anonymizing service, or with a subscription service for higher speeds using dedicated servers, and other features. Firefox users may feel more comfortable with XeroBank, as it is based on Firefox, but also need not make any changes at all if they make use of either the JonDo or Vidalia bundles to access the Tor engine other than to set the proxy server, and of course, manual cleanup of the cache, cookies and browsing history after use. XeroBank claims to have many advanced features, but for the average user most of these may not be apparent, unless the subscription service is used. While the XeroBank browser is free to use on the Tor network, the XeroBank web site promotes the use of their subscription-based account. During installation, the XeroBank Browser offers the choice of using either the commercial XeroBank Client or the free Tor service. Caution! Some antivirus scanners report trojan infected code in the XeroBank download. Use http://jotti.org to verify all downloads, and use XeroBank and all other applications with caution, but be aware that some of the virus scanners used by jotti.org may also be overly zealous in their reporting of infections. Some claimed virus or trojan infections in various applications are no more than firewall detection, or software product key reporting capabilities mis-diagnosed by the scanner as a potential threat.

The downside of XeroBank as contrasted with using JonDo or Vidalia, is that you would need to use XeroBank for anonymous browsing and your regular browser for other surfing. Using JonDo or Vidalia, you can use the browser of your choice, and just reconfigure to use the proxy when you want to anonymous surfing. This won't automatically clean out all other personal data (cache, history, cookies etc.) when the application is shut down, which OperaTor and XeroBank do.

A final item for review recently brought to my attention by Peter, one of our visitors, is UltraSurf, which seems to be primarily targeted at people in China wanting to circumvent official government internet censorship. We will not get into the politics or ethics of either the censorship or circumvention of censorship, however the facility exists and may be useful to some people. UltraSurf is a very simple application, a single tiny 281Kb download containing just one executable, u.exe. When running, this little program uses just 7.5Mb of memory and performs the same role of proxy server as other applications, redirecting all browser requests via the UltraSurf proxy servers. While this is an interesting new development claiming to be very sophisticated, it seems on the surface to be rather simplistic, and does not appear to change proxy servers in the same way that JAP and Tor do. Browsing speeds also seemed to be somewhat slower than with either Tor or JAP browsing. The program appeared to be clean on a http://jotti.org virus scan, other than one possible trojan reported by F-Prot, so as with all software, while it appeared to be safe on my tests, test it out and scan it yourself. By default, UltraSurf changes proxy settings and launches Internet Explorer when it starts, but I was able to shut down Explorer and start FireFox and Opera with the proxy reconfigured to use the same port and successfully browse via UltraSurf.

For all anonymizing services, check that you are running in anonymous mode by first browsing to one of many servers which reports your IP address, for example http://www.whatismyip.com/ and take note of your IP address. Reconfigure your browser to make use of the anonymizing service, and reload / refresh the browser and verify that the reported IP address has changed. Some IP reporting servers will also tell you which country, and even which city you now appear to be connecting from.

Most of the services reviewed are able to run directly from a USB flash drive if the executables are simply copied as is from their installation directories. This works really well, just plug your flash drive into any PC with a USB port, launch both the anonymizing proxy software and a browser, set the browser to redirect via the anonymizer and you will be in business. In the case of both OperaTor and XeroBank, all you need to is launch the browser from your flash drive and you will be ready to start browsing.

While some 'LiveCD' applications such as XeroBank Machine and Incognito Live CD have been created and may provide similar functions, they mostly seem to be currently released in various stages of alpha or beta test versions and have bugs or limitations. For example, the XeroBank Machine provides two options. You can either run the xBMachine.exe from a Windows prompt which starts a QEMU virtual machine and then runs a GenToo Linux kernel, or by booting from a "Live CD". This Live CD boots the same customized GenToo Linux environment from CD without any Windows involvement. In simple terms, both xBMachine options simply provide a different "hardened" OS platform to run the Firefox based XeroBank Browser. Is LiveCD really useful? To some people, yes, not to me. It does mean that like SandBoxie, your guest operating system is protected from malicious web sites via your browsing, and when you stop the QEMU virtual machine or reboot the PC from hard disk rather than CD all traces are removed. I am a Unix / Linux geek so I am totally at home with them, but for the average person, I suspect the LiveCD and QEMU based options will provide a confusing level of complexity that will just interfere with their browsing and desire to be safe. Not much can beat truly safe browsing habits, whatever browser or add-on tools you use. xBMachine is a 380Mb zip file download, which unpacked yields a 391Mb ISO image to create a CD as well as another 10Mb or so of the QEMU environment. The QEMU hosted browser uses 292+Mb of memory, requires the ISO image present, and took more than 5 minutes to load and be ready for use on a 1.8Ghz dual core Intel PC with 1Gb or memory. It provides a Linux X-Windows GUI with a profile configuration, a network configuration, xBBrowser, e-mail, Pidgin instant messenger, terminal and an option to configure for the paid subscription network. I don't know about you, but I am not willing to wait 5 or more minutes and have close to 300Mb of disk space tied up in a browser that took another minute or two to load, and then in my case never managed to connect out anyway. For those who feel that having source available makes a better product, go ahead and try to download the XeroBank source. All of the links gave me a 7Mb source zip file which was corrupted and would not open. Would this give you "open source available" feelings of security? I don't think so.

I'm a freeware and open source fan, I can read and write programs, but not when the source file is corrupted, and I am not likely to start poring through tens of thousands of lines of code even if I could unpack the source. Even if it does unpack, how do we know that exact source was used to build the tool, and not another set of customized source with a built in Trojan or spyware? The reality is that we really don't know unless we both inspect the source code and then compile it and compare the distributed executable.

One final comment on anonymizing, your browsing activities will never be 100% secure and guaranteed to be anonymous. It will be very difficult for anyone to trace you while browsing through the Tor network, except as reported in the Tor wiki, "when you access pages that use Java, Javascript, Macromedia Flash and Shockwave, QuickTime, RealAudio, ActiveX controls, and VBScript are all known to be able to access local information about your operating system and local network. These technologies will work over proxies and can tunnel the information back to their source."

wifi tools

第一步, 确定是否有热点(无线网卡没有限制)
工具1. Wifi device scanner:--NetStumbler 0.40, 它支持所有的wireless card, 可以探测出附近的所有热点, 但因为好几年没有新版本, 所以无法用它来准确探知热点的加密的方式
工具2. Wifi Hopper, 这是一个商业软件, 可以免费用15天, 它可以帮助我们获取热点的加密方式

第二步, 抓取wifi和合法网卡的握手包
并不是所有的网络都能用来抓包, 我的TP-Link TL-WN620g(USB无线网卡)就不能用. 支持的网卡有: http://www.wildpackets.com/support/downloads/drivers, 从网上查到,常用可支持网卡：

• ATHEROS 5212A、BROADCOM 430XMP、Cisco AIR-CB21AG、NEC WL54SC
• TP-LINK系列：前两个是PCI卡(TL-WN550G,TL-WN551G), 这两个是笔记本PCMCIA卡( TL-WN510G,TLWN610G) TL-WN650G TL-WN65G
• 芯片系列：AR5001, AR5002, AR5004, AR5005 and AR5006

工具1. WinAircrackPack(俺下载有, http://www.anxz.com)--这个工具应该所包含破解wifi所需的所有工具, include all tools for crack wifi router such as airodump.exe,WinAircrack.exe, airdecap.exe, 另外还包含了大名鼎鼎的NetStumbler
工具2. OmniPeek Personal, 这个工具可以抓包,

第三步, 破解
工具1. WinAircrackPack (俺下载有, http://www.anxz.com)
工具2. Cowpatty for win32,
工具3. 暴力破解字典下载 www.lastbit.com/dict.asp
