Version: Anonymizer Anonymous Surfing 6.1
"Room for improvement but potentially very useful."
Pros: It works quite well for most of the time & offers several useful options when it comes across a (potentially) dodgy site. As expected, there is a slight delay when surfing, but sometimes it seems a little too long.
Cons: A bit of a pig to set up, takes a long time to start up & does not always work as it should.
It seemed to fight with my "Ashampoo FireWall Pro" resulting in many crashes, I cannot aportion blame for this problem but think it is worth pointing out to potential buyers of both programs.

"PROXIES DON'T WORK! IP NOT CHANGED!"
Cons: The site I was browsing could easily determine my IP while using this program. Program can't distinguish between live and dead proxies. Slows down everything!

"do not install this pice of cr*p Minus 1 stars"
Pros: there is nothing to like about this garbage
Cons: this is a piece of trash that will destroy your system. The program doesn't even come with an un-installer. You have to manually delete all files and shortcuts created by the as*h**es at Anonymizer company.

Version: Anonymizer Anonymous Surfing 6.1
"Can't Change IP Displayed to Websites"
Pros: Easy to set up and use. A full-featured week-long trial offered. Only minor slow down in accessing web sites.
Cons: Does not let you change IP address being shown on demand. You are stuck with the IP address they assign for at least a day (and then it looks like you have to shut down for a while to get a new IP).
