How To Use UltraSurf
How do you unblock websites ? this is a question I’ve come across quite often ever since I started blogging couple months ago. Well , there are many ways to do it, you have to take precautions though and I’m not at all recommending that you break schools rules. One popular method to unblock sites behind restrictive firewalls and proxy servers is use tunneling software, one of them is UltraSurf. This posts is one in a series of my postings on getting around these restrictions, you may find other methods in this blog by clicking here.
UltraSurf is the tunneling software product from UltraReach Internet Corp. for . The light-weight software lets internet surfers inside countries with Internet censorship to browse any public web sites and get around Internet webblocker imposed by governments freely without leaving any traces
Initiated by a group internet and network engineers at UltraReach, UltraSurf is claimed by its developers as a breakthrough that has cope with the deficiencies of previous generations of proxy techniques , enabling it to unblock websites.
UltraSurf enables users to browse any website freely while it automatically searches the highest speed proxy servers . During the whole process, all the contents being transferred are highly encrypted; the level of encryption exceeds the secure standard set for financial transaction such as online banking.
When UltraSurf 6 is started, a golden lock icon comes out at the lower right corner of the user’s monitor and will remain there during the whole process when UltraSurf is in operation, indicating you’re now able to unblock websites.
Currently UltraSurf only supports Microsoft IE and several other Microsoft based browsers. It doesn’t support the browsers such as Netscape, Mozilla, Opera, etc.
However, if a user is able to set proxy address manually in those browsers to 127.0.0.1,
he is also able to surf Internet with those browsers under the protection of UltraSurf.
