Re: [tor-talk] New to TOR



If you have an account on a Web server somewhere, one of several solutions
is to install CGIProxy for a simple way to look like you're coming from
another IP address.  Feel free to contact me privately if you have
questions.

But yeah, as others have said, you'll likely need a new email address and
identity.  Working things out with the site's webmasters is probably the
best solution.

Not trying to be self-promotional on the Tor list, it's just my usual
advice for this situation.  :)

Cheers,
James
