Fun! It's giving me a migraine! Thanks, I've done the 2FA thing. :)
Thanks, Palancar. I think I'll use a localbitcoin wallet initially just to be on the safe side and when I feel a little more confident I'll try...
Many thanks again, Palancar, much appreciated. I'll install a wallet on my PC and use that. My plan is to buy one Bitcoin just to get the feel of...
Wow! Thanks, Palancar. Valuable advice for a novice like myself. If I buy 0.5 Bitcoins but spend only 0.4 Bitcoins, does the remaining 0.1 remain...
Many thanks, Mirimir. I'll check them out.
Thanks, JR.
I'm interested in buying some Bitcoins and although the 'local bitcoin' option would be preferable, I don't have a laptop/tablet/smartphone to be...
Mirimir is female? :eek: NordVPN is getting some excellent reviews, apparently they are based in Panama - well known for corruption, unlike the...
Thanks, Mirimir. I actually like Cryptostorm, it's just the uncertainties associated with it that will probably rule it out for me to take a punt...
Damn! It was working well too. I think a good rule of thumb is never to trust any VPN provider who's into bestiality (although some may disagree)....
Has anybody tried Cryptostorm? The GUI makes Mullvad's look positively sophisticated! Virtually no configuration options, just fire it up and go....
Does this mean Mullvad are screwed as a safe VPN provider?
Thanks, Mirimir. I didn't know if having a dynamic rather than a static IP would bugger things up.
Can I use a VPN with ADSL dial-up internet?
Grabbed a copy of Partition Wizard and it sees the hidden partitions created by DiskCryptor, they are about 1-2 megabytes in size. As you say,...
Thanks, Palancar. I'll give Partition Wizard a try as Acronis Disk Director doesn't see the partitions. Nothing sensitive on the drive, it's an...
I installed this on a spare HDD and have been using it for a few weeks and it has worked flawlessly. I uninstalled it after decrypting the drive...
Thanks, Nebulus and Mirimir. I'll look into Whonix and see if I feel confident about setting it up without making a hash of it!
Hmm, so I've been trying to set up a 'safe' email account using Tor. They all require Javascript to be enabled either to sign up for a new account...
Many thanks, Mirimir.
Thanks.
I've been trying to fill in an on-line form (anonymously) using the latest Tor Browser Bundle. Everything is fine but I can't select 'radio...
What makes you say that, do you work for the Advanced Onion Router people perhaps. Nope, but Advanced OR appears to be a nice bit of kit.
Maybe it's time to ditch Tor and go with Advanced Onion Router instead?
Using the latest TBB (or the previous version) I can't access any .onion sites (Pandora, Evolution etc.) even though all of the 'connected to Tor'...
