Testing the browser setup

With the help of different testsites you can tell whether your browser has been configured right. We recommend specifically the

JonDos Anonymity Test

The website will give you a quick overview of all your IP, header or other information that your browser sends to websites. All fields should be colored green or colorless. Orange is usually tolerable, red can be devastating to your anonymity.

If you see any red, please work through the browser setup pages again. Check especially the displayed IP address. If it is red you are surfing on the Net without any protection by JonDo or Tor. Also, make sure that your browser can not run ActiveX, Java and Flash without your prior confirmation. An automatic execution of these plugins will usually give away your IP address and important system settings, and can thus revoke anonymity completely or at least partially with respect to that website.

Please remember that at the moment only JonDoFox passes all criteria applied in the test for secure and anonymous surfing. With other browsers such a configuration is only possible to experts, if at all.
