Try also running Vidalia/Tor with proxy turned on (which you can speed up a notch with custom scripting), using FF without GTB installed.

Great tips!

For SEO professionals abroad or who’s proxy IP is registered outside of the US and who need to access google.com, the google.com/ncr (No Country Redirect) is handy to bypass the country TLD redirect.

I knew Google was after my Data with the Toolbar. The reason I never used it and tried to get all people I know to deinstall it.
Thanks for the guide to erase the other tracks Google uses.

I think reading is a very important topic. I read tons of blogs in my niche to come up with ideas and topics that I haven’t covered or that I need to cover more of. Great list here

I protect myself against Google spyware.
I’ve set Opera to NoCookies NoReferrer NoPlugins NoImageAnimations.
And then i allow settings only for those sites
that really need them. RightClick,
EditSitePreferences
Overall faster and safer web

The HUGE problem is that i cant properly
protect friends and families computers
(n00bs are screwed)

as startpage helps. And EmptyCookiesOnExit.
And ad-blocking.

Hi Ann . . . I read a lot of your stuff at Sphinn as well. This article is great, and I can already see some other applications for some of these tools you suggested. I bookmarked this one, because I for sure need to read this a few more times. Nice work!
