A humble request for computer help.
I've been banned from posting comments on a blog. They use blogger and haloscan. I use Earthlink via a Time Warner cable modem connection. I also have XP.

Is there a way around this?

Thanks in advance.

2. I can't help with the computer side
but I'm curious why you would want to bypass a blog where you've been banned. It seems you're asking for help hacking??

3. It's kind of a personal thing
and a challenge. The owner of the site is/was a friend of mine. We're in kind of a feud now. I just want to mess with him a little.

4. Don't worry - it's not hacking you're talking about.

5. Thanks but I have a few questions.
Is it safe? Will it slow my internet access? Will it interfere with any Windows based products?

I've already had to rebuild my hard drive once and don't want to do it again.

Have you used this software and what has been your experience?

6. It's safe.
It will slow your internet access - there are different proxy servers to choose from, so you can try until you find one that's acceptable. I have used it - a long time ago I played with it when my boss told me about it when we were in a discussion about proxies. I work at an ISP - my boss was uber security certified before security certification was cool. I recently installed it again, this time on my home machine. Haven't played with it too much - but I just turned it on after seeing your thread, and I am surfing anonymously as we speak. ;)

I'll try it soon. Gotta crash now.
