Anti Spam

Anti spam fights spam bots

The purpose of this page is to make it so spammers who attempt to collect email addresses off the web, via programs, will not have real email addresses in their database. Anti-Spam causes problems because they will have to clean out their list. It also makes their database worthless for reselling purposes because the company purchasing their spam database will have worthless email address.

How ANTI-SPAM works

This page has fifty randomly generated email addresses (refresh and new ones will appear). At the bottom of the page is a link to this page again, essentially reloading it for programs to collect more fake email addresses. Email collecting programs (spam bots) will be sent into an infinite loop by following the link at the bottom of the page and will get more and more fake email addresses stuck in their databases.

Spam is the electronic world's biggest problem. A fool proof method of filtering out spam does not yet exist, but we don't have to sit back and take it. Anti-Spam pages like this one make spamming less profitable and is our way to help FIGHT SPAM.

Help out and join the fight again Spam!

Want to help with the Anti-Spam effort? When a spammer's program visits your web page, they will check all the pages that you link to for email addresses. So, all you have to do is link to this page and whenever a spammer's program scans your page, they will be sucked into this one. To link to this page use this simple code:

Popup Test

Popup Test is located at the bottom of the page, but let me explain the test first.

The popup test is an interactive popup test that will check the quality of your popup blocker.

Because the test opens different popup windows, it may be tempting to manually close them. Please allow the test time to close these windows on it's own (should only take a few seconds).

Some tests will require your input, so please be aware and follow the instructions in order to make the popup test as accurate as possible.

When the popup test is completed, your popup stopper will given a rating from 1 to 100. This score reflects your popup blockers ability to block pop ups.

Popup Test - Details

Normal popup test:

This test checks to see if your popup blocker can block normal popup windows, which are browser windows that do not have any toolbar, buttons or menus except for a simple titlebar. This test adds 20 points to your popup blocker quality score if this popup is blocked.

Full-screen popup test:

This checks your popup blocker's ability to block a special type of popup window. This window does not have any toolbars, button or menus and covers your entire screen. These are called "full-screen popups" are can only be seen with the Internet Explorer web browser. This test adds 10 points to your score if this popup is blocked.

Channel-opener popup test:

This type of popup launches a full-screen popup but contains a toolbar and can only be seen on the Internet Explorer. Other browsers will just open a normal popup. Adds 5 points to your popup test score.

Modeless dialog popup test:

This popup can only be launched in Internet Explorer and opens a dialog window, not a popup, that forces the user to close it in order to continue working on the web page that opened it. Adds 10 points to your popup test score.

Browser window popup test:

This popup is exactly the same as a normal browser window. Contains menubars, toolbars, and everything else that a normal browser has. This test adds 20 points to your popup test score.

User-launched HREF-method popup test:

The term "user-launched" refers to popup windows that are opened manually by the user. This test checks to see if your browser allows a popup window to be opened from clicking a link. It may think it's a popup and block it. Adds 10 points to your popup test score.

User-launched JavaScript-method popup test:

This test checks your popup blocker's ability to correctly allow popups that open when you click on a link. The popups being opened can be a popup or series of popups that are opened by an instruction called from JavaScript when you click on that link. Adds 10 points to your popup test score.

User-launched OnClick-method popup test:

This test checks if your popup blocker allows popups that open when you click on a HTML object, which usually is a link. Popup windows are opened by detecting when you click on that object. Adds 10 points to your popup test score.

User-launched Delayed-method popup test:

This test is the same as the JavaScript-method popup test, the only difference is that the popup being opened is delayed by a dialog box before it actually opens. Adds 5 points to your popup test score.

Anonymous Surfing

Are you Surfing Anonymously?

Below is information that you are giving away right now as you visit sites. Anonymous surfing is easy if you know what type of information to block. The end goal is to give away as little information about yourself as possible and we'll help you do just that.

We are not doing anything special here, we are simply reading the information your computer is providing about you and displaying that back in a form you can understand. To surf anonymously, you need to first understand exactly what you are giving away.

Your computer is connecting to the internet at , , in the CN, with an ip of119.153.65.124

Your UserAgent is being reported as:
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US) AppleWebKit/530.5 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/2.0.172.31 Safari/530.5

Your IP Address is 119.153.65.124

We could not find your Host Name, this is good!

A trace to your phone comes back with an area code of: 0

Hiding your Electronic Identity

An anonymous proxy is like a middle man, someone or something that acts for you without giving away who you are. In the case of anonymous surfing, the middle man is a computer (proxy server) that retrieves web pages for you so that it appears it is another system making the request.

When you surf the internet, your computer lets every other computer know who it is by giving away information such as your ip address, type of browser and a ton of other information. The goal is to hide all this information from other computers and this is called anonymous surfing.

You don't have to use a proxy server and it is possible to hide just about all your information without one. The one item you can't hide without some type of proxy is your IP address, and although this can help a site discover your service area, it will not lead them to your home.

We have a ton of tools on this site, such as proxo, that will let you surf anonymously, but if you really need to hide everything, then use a proxy server.

Some Proxy Servers are very Bad!

Not all proxy servers do as they claim and in fact, there are a ton of junk proxy servers out there that give people a false sense of security or worse, record everything you do in hopes to score a password or two!

Whether or not you decide to use an anonymous proxy, make sure you use this page to help verify that you are not giving away more information than you should - before you start surfing the internet!

Firewall Test

Basic Firewall Test

If you're new to computer security, then this Firewall Test is for you. This test will check your computer for ports that are commonly left open. Open ports could allow your computer to be compromised. This firewall test will also check for open ports known to be used by Viruses and Trojans.

If you are the typical home computer user surfing the net, you should not find any open ports. If you do find open ports, we'll show you how to lock down your system.

Advanced Firewall Test

This Firewall Test will allow you to pick a range of ports (or a specific port) to scan. This is useful for testing remote desktop services, ftp servers and other services running on non-standard ports.

Network administrators looking to test hidden ports will find this firewall test very useful. It eliminates the need to set up a server or outside computer to perform security audits and can reveal ports not thought to be open.

Firewall Tests - Accuracy

Note that some high-end hardware firewalls (cisco PIX, etc) and software firewalls may permanently block an IP address if it detects a security audit. You'll want to temporarily disable this autoblock feature (not the firewall) or you'll receive incorrect results (if you are an average user, this probably won't concern you).

Here's why: If we start to test your firewall for ports 1 to 1024 and your firewall blocks our IP address after a only few ports, then the remaining ports will appear closed to us when in fact they may actually be open.

If you are running on a private network, [you may be connected through a router, proxy, or firewall] and the firewall test may be conducted on that device instead of your computer; if you are unsure, do not perform the Security Audit! If you're being scanned and want it stopped, visit IP or leave us feedback. Your logs will show a scan originating from 130.94.69.111; please make note of this.
