    This is what Chewy said in a previous thread:

    "i use torpark, It uses Firefox as browser and changes your ip by connecting to to the tor system changing your proxy address to a different county. You don't need to configure anything, you might have to connect a couple of times to find a us proxy and it is a bit slow, but i just use it when i'm ready to buy my tunes

    http://www.download.com/Torpark/300...4-10586816.html"

    "just download it and it will download a file, open the file and click on torpark, this will then open firefox with an random ip, go to beatport, pay for stuff in dollars. you might have to open and close it a couple of times to be assigned to a us ip"

    Really should get round to doing this myself

    thats one of the problems, that and it slows your comp down... but its worth it when your getting your tunes for half price

    i usually only use torpak when i need to pay for my tunes. i then just download them using my normal internet as its faster

    What browser are people that have had success using for this?

    Beatport doesn't load properly when I go through the proxy :mad:
