Check out Tor.

Edit: Please see thread(s) below for updated Tor browser.

Tor was quite slow for me as well. Does the speed depend on whether or not you're acting as a server? ie. Does it speed up the service if you're acting as a server in the network?

Thanks,
Paul

Well, I have an extremely biased opinion on this subject: I run my own anonymizing service (see signature). If you have any questions about it feel free to ask.

Here's some insight into the paid anonymizing service business: Most services don't allow peer-to-peer applications (i.e. Bittorrent) and they also tend to disconnect you if you use up a lot of traffic. They won't say this anywhere on their site so if they don't explicitly say, "we allow peer-to-peer applications" (or something similar) then they probably don't and will likely cut you off or they'll have filters in place to throttle or block these apps.

Another useful tidbit: if you're going to use applications like bittorrent over an anonymizing service make sure that it supports Universal Plug N Play (UPnP). Without it many applications won't work and others will just run really slow (bittorrent).

Here's another big no-no about most anonymizing VPN services: A lot of them will setup your account manually after you sign up (which means you have to wait) and then email you your encryption certificates. Sending private encryption keys via email is like walking around for a day with your social security number clearly written on your forehead. Not only will a copy likely be stored in your email for a long time (possibly forever) but it could easily be intercepted in transit.

FYI: Avoid SecureIX. I've had several new customers sign up recently because their admin is AWOL. I've emailed them myself and gotten no response (its been weeks).

Also: Avoid sites that don't offer a money-back guarantee. You could sign up, wind up with a super-slow service (servers far away) and then have no recourse.

It seems like a lot of the proxy servers are very slow because of high use. I've tried proxify for basic searching and it seems to work pretty good.

It allows you to remove all cookies, scripts, ads, referrer information, etc. and allows you to start the session in HTTPS.

The paid version allows more interactive content because of higher bandwidth demands. I do wish to mention the fact that by paying, your payment details could be tied to your account in some way, shape, or form and could possibly lead to subpoena action if a court demands records or logs.

Also, FYI - the new Torpark is now called xB Browser but is still pretty slow.

I have always been happy with COTSE

"Professional cpanel based web hosting with shell access, unrivaled private e-mail service, SSH tunneling, web privacy proxies, anonymous remailer interfaces, and more at one low price of just $5.95 per month."

I have had an account with them since their beginning and still use it daily

(obDisclaimer - I am not currently associated with them but was in the past)
