    Hi Guys
    Thinking of using a free proxy server (there seem to be hundreds available) for accessing some torrent sites. Does anyone use them and maybe recommend a few. I have done a few tests but am not really sure if they work properly and are really secure with my information.
    Any help really appreciated

    They don't secure the information.. there was an article about a guy hacking the Tor network at the exit nodes.. or people can setup nodes and monitor it.
    There is no 100% sure way to remain anon on the Internet.
