HTTP Tunneling

Eglinton

Could anyone tel me how to download music on Kazaalite through a firewall.

Socks2http, configure you Kazaa settings to point to the port set in Socks2http
eg: Kazaa points to 127.0.0.1:PORT

I remember I had to get that thing working. I tried the top two, socks2http and the other one, can't remember the name. It takes a bit of fidddling and doesn't always work but when you have no other choice......
Sometimes it give very fast download speeds, sometimes not. Best to try the evaluation (if there is one) before you buy.

Sock2http is free

Karoma

...not anymore... ? Requires an (paid) account methinks;although a free 15 day trial is still available..

Just in case you're trying to use Socks2HTTP in UCD, the tunnel works but a huge range of IPs are blocked so Kazaa won't connect to anything...

Duffman, When in college tomorrow I'll PM you a link to another program that works. If I remember. God bless neworder.box.sk!

Duffman

Yay!! Thank you Thank you Thank you!

Not true, I'm using socks2http with kazaa and it works fine. I'm in the Quinn building, maybe its different in yours.

How about DCU? They seem to have pretty much everything blocked off, anyone found a way through the firewall there?

Did you pay for that? Because if you pay for the use of tunnel servers, of course it works...

I want to tunnel for free

Oh, I see what you mean, socks2http blocked kazaa. Yeh, I pay for it, used to use HTTP-tunnel, just trying s2h on different bandwidths to see if its any good. Incidentally, I thought they stopped their free service altogether. If you want a free tunneler try here , you can get speeds up to an amazing 3k/s! But hey, its free!

Hey Linoge - that link you provided tried to get a trojan horse onto my pc!!

Linoge

RE*AC*TOR

Have you used it? How fast is it? You can't use paypal so I would be wary of it.
Does anyone know if it would be possible to have lets say- 2 Kazaa' working and 2 http tunnelers working??:)

Caliden

meh its ok. not as fast a i thought it would be considering i can get downlaod speeds of 1mb from some sites.
it got 25% done of a 3mb song in about 2/3 minutes

Linoge

i can get downlaod speeds of 1mb from some sites.

Really???? I'm using socks2http @ 50k/s for €16 a month. Where is the 1mb tunneler could you tell me?

RE*AC*TOR

He meant he can get those download speeds from websites (http).

Caliden

i ment the regular speed of the line can achieve 1mb but im not sure what exact speed it can get using hopster. i will check on monday at lunch if i have time
