TorPark
Turn any internet terminal into a secure connection.Welcome to the TorPark download page. Download TorPark for your language, and put it on a USB Flash keychain. Plug it into any internet terminal whether at home, school, or public. Run Torpark.exe and it will launch a Tor circuit connection, which creates an encrypted tunnel from your computer directly to a Tor exit computer, giving the appearance of having the Tor exit computer's IP.

What is TorPark, exactly?
TorPark is a fully configured combination of Tor (The Onion Router) and Deer Park Alpha (an experimental version of Firefox). Both programs are in the zip files, fully configured. Just unzip them to a flash drive and run the setup file. This won't work for a CD because Tor needs a local directory to write to. Since you don't want to leave tracks on the computer you are using, Tor is set to write to their local directory. And since a CD can't readily be written to, the program will terminate. Once you are running, it may not bring up the start page correctly the first time, just hit the "Home" button. We would also like to encourage all non-Chinese to allow Tor servers to run on their internet connection.
How can this be used?
If you just enjoy the simplicity of a program that is not bloated, can be personalized, and leaves no trash behind, this program is for you. It is also possible that this program could be used to obscure what websites you visit, by scrambling where your internet connection is coming from, going to, and all the data passing between your browser and the Tor exit node.
What are the limitations?
Only that which goes on in the web browser is secure. Eventually, we will add messengers and email. However, you are free to use web-based email as it is secured through the browser.
Does it really work?
Obviously it does.
Tor is slow, how do I speed it up?
Tor is slow compared to broadband connections, but we can often achieve ~20KB/sec downloads, which is still much faster than dialup. One of the reasons it is slow is because the Tor network is abused by P2P clients trying to share files, like bittorrents. While we do what we can to deny this abusive traffic, the best way to speed up Tor is to add more Tor servers. So what you can do is ask your university, local government, corporation, library, and your friends to run a Tor server to enhance each other's privacy and the Tor network speed.
